So, here we are in the last month of 2018, and time continues to fly! The kids are doing an amazing job of keeping up, though.

The Geometry class just completed a test over quadrilaterals. They were asked to classify the different quadrilaterals provided, be able to construct them given certain information, and know the properties of their angles, sides, & diagonals.

The Algebra 1 class is getting into solving 2 equations with 2 unknowns. Solving by substitution is the first method they are learning. Graphing them to show the solution is also a great way of creating a visual for them to see. It helps make sense once the equations are solved.

Middle school continues to work on finding fractional, decimal, and percent parts of numbers. Being able to convert to and from decimals, fractions, and percents is a crucial stepping stone in this concept. This is taught in grades prior to middle school, and is being reviewed to help them stay on top of things.

Publications is continuing to take pictures for the yearbook, create announcements that they give for the school in the mornings, come up with creative Facebook posts for Kingdom Academy's Facebook page, create 2 newsletters per quarter, work through a creative writing book in hopes of helping them with the newsletters, and work on miscellaneous projects that the school needs. Although there's a lot of work that needs done, they complete it in a timely manner and with a great attitude!

As you can see, there is a lot going on, and time isn't slowing down. However, I want to take my hat off to the kids for the effort they put into their work. It's great to see their work ethic improve, and it is our hope to continue pushing them so that they will continue to grow. I also want to thank you for the prayers and support you show to Kingdom Academy. Without all of us working together, we wouldn't exist. Have a great Christmas season, and don't forget to say "happy birthday" to Jesus!
