Always Learning!

Once a week, the kids are split into small groups, and then take turns participating in a Bible study with Mrs. Gloria. It's a time to relax and listen, as well as learn something new and reflect on how they could apply the lesson to their own lives. As a book, the Bible is a wonderful piece of literature and has many good moral lessons. As a religious manuscript, it is a life guideline. During Art week, Kyle and Hayes collaborated on an interesting paragraph that explained what they had learned! We wanted to share the paragraph and allow you guys a little insight on what was discussed. Enjoy the following reading by Hayes Meekins and Kyle Berkey:

2 Vessels and an Ark 

by Kyle and Hayes

       Have you ever heard of the Titanic, the Costa Concordia, and Noah's Ark? If not, here are some facts. The first fact is that Noah's Ark was built approximately 1,000,000 (one million) years ago. Also, Noah's Ark was about 450 feet long, or 150 yards long. Another fact is that Noah's Ark was 45 feet high and 75 feet wide, and it had 3 decks, but only 8 passengers. The Titanic was built in 1912. The length of the Titanic is 882 feet. The Titanic's weight is 50,000 tons. The Titanic has 6 decks and 2,200 passengers. In 2012, the Costa Concordia was built. The length of the Costa Concordia is 952 ft. The Costa Concordia has 13 decks and 4,252 passengers. Although these ships were very big, only one stayed afloat. That was Noah's Ark.
