On Tuesday, October 28, the students will have a test on Early Salvation History. The main components will be the salvation history chart (events and the Bible citations), the covenant chart, the relationships among the various Old Testament figures, the protoevangelium (Genesis 3:15), and an essay on one of the major Old Testament stories. I wish success to every student!

After prayer, the students received their test back. We reviewed them as a class. It was good to see the students after their week-long ITBS last week. The students were asked to have their tests signed and returned tomorrow.

In class today we prayed the Liturgy of the Hours. The students are getting very good. Afterwards, we did a review of our lessons to date and discussed the maxim “Good but Fallen.” This maxim will serve as a brief summary of the Creation and Fall accounts. For homework, the students were asked to write a paragraph on this maxim.

Well, it turned out that we did have class yesterday. The Middle School shortened its class time and so every class was able to meet. So, we started our review of the Liturgy of the Hours in the student’s prayer books. Today, we picked up that review and prayed the Liturgy of the Hours as a class. It’s my intention to pray the Liturgy of the Hours frequently as a class. We also reviewed the days of creation and the five principles of creation. From there, we moved to Genesis 2:5 and began our discussion on the creation of the human person. On Monday, the students will need their Bibles in class.

On Wednesday, September 3, we will not have a formal lesson time. The students will have the opportunity to go to Confession. For any remaining time of our class period, the students will review and visit with Mrs. Ortner.

Sept 2

jfkirby803 — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 19:47:30 +0000

Today in class we reviewed the five principles of creation, and then had a quiz on them. I purposely reviewed beforehand because I wanted the students to know these principles and to do well on the quiz. After the quiz, we reviewed how to go to Confession. Tomorrow the Middle School students will have an opportunity to receive this sacrament.
