Mrs. Belcher – Middle School Religion

Posted on December 10, 2009, by Beth Belcher, under Middle School Notes.

All of Middle School has a Current Event due Wednesday, Dec. 16 and a major vocabulary test on Thursday, Dec 17.  This will also include the St Gertrude the Great prayer.

6th Grade

The students have been learning about ‘sin stories’ and how sin entered the world, thanks to Adam and Eve.  We will move on after Christmas to studying about Abraham, and Jacob.

7^th Grade

Seventh graders have been working on the difference between the Gospel of Matthew’s account of the Nativity and the Gospel of Luke’s account.  There really is a difference!  We will move on to The Mission of Jesus and the learning about the Apostles after we come back from Christmas break.

8^th Grade

We have been working hard on the Faith Sharing pages and the very last one is due Thursday, January 8, 2010.  I am very sure that they will feel that a huge weight is lifted from their shoulders once they have completed this last page.  By the time Confirmation rolls around, they will be ready!  We have focused on the Models of the Church and once we are back from Christmas break we will look at Prayer and Service – St Augustine’s Prayer to the Holy Spirit and the Beatitudes.
