January Chapel

We had January chapel this morning with a full house of students, parents, and grandparents. The Rev. Ron Johnson from United Methodist Church here in Yankton was our speaker. He talked about the big things even little ones can do to show God's love to others.

Cowboy Fun

The kindergarten class is reading a book this week about a cowboy and his horse. The students came up with the idea of dressing up like cowboys/girls for a day and soon the first graders were in on it too! What a fun day! Yeehaw!

Snow Pile Fun

One of the simple joys of winter here at MVCA is the snowpile that if formed from the removal of the white stuff from the parking lot. Unlike last year this pile seems to be keeping on the "soft" side and not immediately turning into a "rock" and forming a play hazard. The students have had a tremendous amount of fun sliding, tumbling, and rolling down MVCA's winter hill.

K-1st Computer Class

Crayola Art Studio was the center of attention for the K-1st graders during computer class. This software will be used to create illustrations for their writings in the classroom with Mrs. Frederick.

Measuring the Ark of the Covenant

The second and third graders were busy with rulers and yarn measuring the dimensions of the Ark of the Covenant. What a math lesson because they first had to convert cubits to feet! Whew...what a lesson to come back to after an unexpected 3 day weekend!!
