Jake recently completed his first culture project for 5th grade. He chose the Mayan culture because he learned a lot about the Mayans during our mission trip to Guatemala last February. We even visited the Mayan ruins on our last day. He was able to research more about the culture, how they originated, historic data, and their core beliefs. He put it all together on a tri-fold to present to his class, including real pictures from our time at the ruins, a hand drawn map, research information, and a time-line. Jake was proud of his work and it paid off with good remarks from his teacher.
Jake is enjoying his 5th grade year - it is the beginning of a very social time in his life. We are growing as parents in this area as well - growing pains are not always fun. Prayers, please! Jake has lots of questions - and sometimes we just don't want to go there...but, we must! Again, prayers and wisdom needed!
