December has flown by!
After having traveled via train through Chapter 1, we now rest in Chapter 2. This New Year, we will learn to ask for a menu and identify parts of a restaurant. Eat and learn with us. We shall continue learning how to conjugate verbs using the past preterit tense.
Journey with us as our Spanish vocabulary increases to greater heights. I encourage you, if possible, to continue to speak Spanish with your child(ren), as this will enable learning all throughout.

New Vocabulary
The beginning of school has been quite exciting in ESL with over fifty students from all over the world acclimating to a Christ centered school. The Middle School and High school students have been increasing their conversational English through group activities related to their workbooks. Spiritual Emphasis Week became an impetus for many students to learn for the first time words many of us take for granted such as sanctuary, redemption, praise, glory and audacity. It also became a special time to learn how to question and write reflectively. Our latest projects were for International Week; students made presentations with either posters or power points describing where they grew up, comparing and contrasting their hometown with New York City, and predicting where they will be in ten years. The best part was listening to the students ask questions in English about each other’s hometown. It was very enriching for all and enlightening to me.

International Week at Evangel was filled with diversity an a unique blend of rich cultures. Over 73 different nationa are represented at Evangel and how awesome it is to share about our heritage with eachother.
Each day of the week was filled with something new… from wearing the colors of our flags, to country costumes, to food and desserts from our homelands. Each new student gets tpplace a marker in our wall map to represent where they are form.
We are so blessed at Evangel and we thank God for blessing us with such diversity.

“Evangel Newsletter”
October 26th to the 30th was Spirtual Emphasis week at Evangel. Students had an amazing week during our Spiritual Emphasis week. Our younger students learned how God loves them just the way they are. They alsocompleted crafts and sang songs each day with our theme, “Panadamania.” The students are continuing to learn that God is “wild” about us! Our older students had an amazing week as our speakers, Ron and Heather Rhoads flew in for the week to share the love of God through the Word and song. Many students responded to the message that was given each day and we are blessed as a staff to see the seeds being planted in our students’ lives.

Review Time
What a wonderful bunch of students. I am so excited to have these children in my class. Their enthusiastic spirits encourage my heart and make it fun to teach this class. The students are having a great time becoming reacquainted with the Spanish Language. We have been completing basic review lessons in class and are ready to dive into our textbooks and new lessons.

Dissection Labs
When students think of Biology, one of the first things they think of is dissections! Yes, yes, yes… lab experiences have included dissecting an earthworm, a frog, examining the movements and patterns of a meal worm, analyzing the anatomy of a grasshopper, and dissecting a rat! Yes, a rat! It may not have been quite pleasing to the eye, but some students had the appearance of a doctor at work! Separating organs, checking out what is in the stomach and comparing the similarities between the body parts of a human and a rat. You would never think one could be so fascinated over such a dissection. It is something you will never discover, until you step into The Lab!

Hard work pays off
Students worked hard on their dance routines – section by section. The students had to learn a lot of new steps. They learned how to do leg swipes, pop and lock and moves with partners, feet gliding and flag routines. The students chose to also come on Thursday afterschool to work on their dance routines. Great job!

Do Wait
The song they danced to was Do Wait. This group worked really hard as there were very challenging dance steps and they had to work with partners. These students even practiced after school just to get a dance step or to learn the moves. There were about 27 students in the group. The challenge was that they had to learn how to move as a group and use the flags. It’s not that easy to throw a flag up in the air and catch it without dropping it on the floor.
