Queridos Padres,

As part of the ZCS family we are all responsible for playing our part in maintaining the health and well-being of our beloved community. Please remember that our decisions and behaviors affect everyone around us. Thank you for your responsibility as a child of God and a good citizen. Today more than ever we are called to exercise the ministry of peace.

Thank you so much to our amazing room-mon Erin Bremmer, who always steps forward and takes care of every detail, you are a blessing to all of us.

Following the alternative learning plan for my beloved students I want to let you know that I have sent a large number of resources home. Please feel free to contact me with any concerns that arise. Everyone is called to do their best without any ​pressure at all.

Finally, I will record some cue lessons on Seesaw, and I will do a Facebook live every Wednesday morning at 10am on our Classroom Page. The 'live' FB is certainly NOT mandatory and will just be an opportunity to teach the kids in a 'live' format. All of the videos will be recorded and placed on the classroom page for later viewing.

Praying for health and peace!

Blessings,

Maestra Durán

This Week:
Bible Memory Verse:​ ​Romans 8:31-32​ ​ Due Date: ​March 17 (quiz they have taken home.)
Bible: ​We will learn about Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection this week! These lessons are the foundation of our faith and there is so much to learn and discover! Our goal is to bring these stories to life even more this week and to help the students fall more in love with our selfless Creator God. (folder they have taken home.)
Literature Selection: ​Any of the books you've brought home.  
Phonics: ​Syllable classification: sílabas tónicas (agudas y llanas) 
Word Wall Words: ​después, interés, jamás, casi, nunca.
Poem: ​Comelones

Reading: During this week we will focus on using all the components of Non Fiction books to help students use these features to get information from a text and apply it to their writings. (Raz-Kids)
Writing: ​It is time to move on to investigating the content of our chapters. Students will look for more information in other books and from their friends.
And they will also do it at home, thanks in advance for all the support you offer to your child.
Math:​ Most of them did great on their test. Now we are adding larger numbers this week and will really focus on why we carry (or regroup). Students will work on explanations and proof drawings to demonstrate deeper understanding. (papers they have taken home.)
Social Studies: We have already begun our lesson on the concepts of economics. In this unit, students build upon their knowledge of the economic concepts of scarcity, choice, wants, and needs. Students review the idea that economic wants are desires that can be satisfied with a good or service. We have also read the book titled, Ox-Cart Man, for better understanding and developing the rest of the package they have taken home.

“Housekeeping” Items:
Let's raise a cry to our Mighty God for world health! According to 2 Chronicles 7:14​ if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
