Thank you Morgan for an awesome snack and sharing your BIRTHDAY with us :)  It was our honor and joy to celebrate with you.Next week is Morel.

Homework: Lessons 21 - 24

Latin: We had a pop quiz for 1st declension endings :)  We practiced vocabulary and introduced indirect objects.  we expressed the importance of learning the grammar, even if the understanding is not there yet.  The understanding will come.

Rhetoric: It was such a nice day, we had our discussion outside.  We discussed both chapters and in the end we got into why are we learning this?  Why would we need to know what the uninformative believes? Why do we believe in Jesus?  I challenged them to be prepared to give an answer that is not, "because that is what my mom believes."
