Wednesday: Draw the four things plants need to grow: water, sunlight, nutrients(soil/dirt), air
Use the back of your plant part paper. You could have mom or dad fold into fourths.
You will have four boxes in which to draw: sunlight, water, dirt, air and label your
pictures. That means to write the words for each picture.

Friday March 27: Today is usually the day the Church gathers for The Stations of the Cross

This is a “no meat” day...

*Parents, preview before watching with your children.

They don’t have to watch but they usually like this kind of thing.

The Stations of the Cross Part one: These are done with scenes from the 1977: Jesus of Nazareth.

Make sure they know that this is not really Jesus. It is just an actor. Everyone is pretending.

Is it sad? Yes.

I will post part 2 next Friday.

I will post part 3 on Good Friday.
