*  Just a reminder that there are a lot of ticks outside this month.  We are going outside and learning in God's creation so it would be a good idea to do a tick check every night.  The class is encouraged to go to the washroom and check for ticks when they come in from recess.  As well they have been checking friends hair as well.

*  During discussion time in devotions class we have been praying for the countries of Ukraine and Nigeria.  These countries have been on the classes heart because of the students in the class who have relatives there.  If you have the time to chat with your child and pray with them that would be great.  Some of the students have watched the news about these countries and some have many questions about what is going on there.  I encouraged the class to talk with you if they had questions about the fighting or the kidnaping.
