Well done Annabelle! A Kingdom Kid Award is one of the most important awards you can receive at Conerstone. 
Your award says: 

“If Annabelle was a superhero her super power would be RESPECT! Annabelle listens, follows the rules, says hello to people she passes, lets other go first and she is a pro at using her manners. Thank you for treasuring us Annabelle.”

April's Calendar Challenge

Here are the winning entries (in no particular order) for April's 'name and place that wild animal' challenge.  You all went above and beyond.

Congratulations Samuel C! We loved the photo's, and super cool to see you presenting it in your own handwriting (...and in your rather fantastic self inspired home writing book, what an inspiration!!!)

Congratulations, Luque!  The cool thing about your entry is how you asked questions and answered them, "5 facts about Orangutan's" is a really catchy title.  You alerted us to orangutan's being an endangered animal and why.  These kinds of issues are really important to talk about because God gave us all the job of looking after the earth and what he made.

Congratulations Sarah!  It is really fabulous how you brought together facts, an acrostic poem you wrote, diagrams and pictures.  A superb variety, showing creativity and a personal touch.  An AWESOME entry!

2014 Calendar - Wild Animal Research Challenge

Our classroom calendar has a photo of a different wild animal every month.  The challenge for those who choose to accept it is:  

Can you name the animal and where it lives?

Our 5 year old, ready researchers went above and beyond and provided lots of interesting facts as well.  Here are the entries for February's animal.

Our fabulous entries created a healthy hearty class debate over whether our calendar elephants were African or Asian.   Two entries thought Asian and four thought African.  

March

This week we presented our March animal entries.  They were very creative!  We had a variety of styles - posters, a book, and a story!  Our calendar is in the background on the right if you want to see the photo for yourself.

Congratulations Luque, Sarah, Jonathan, Samuel C and Jonny!

This entry is Jimin's.  She was away when we presented our entries, but isn't it a great one!
