supernova.

Supernova

This is a book about two friends their names  are Amy and James. The two friends plan something together, that they would meet up some place. When the two did, Amy went to grab her telescope from her and friend,  James can look at planets, comets and stars. But when Amy and James were having fun Tony and his friends came and ruined it. The next morning when Amy went to school people were being mean to her and saying “where is your boyfriend.” But when school finished Amy and James planned that they would meet up at James back yard, so Tony and his friend don't be mean to them. In that moment Amy and James found a new supernova.  

At first they were afraid that it was bad so Amy went to get her dad. James thought that it was a UFO. Then Amy and her dad came back with lots of book that were useful, when Amy’s dad looked at it he noticed that it was a supernova and Amy's dad called in to his work to tell that there was a supernova. (If you don’t know what is a supernova is will it can be two small stars that were very close together and a very big star)

The next morning,  Amy woke up from knocks on the door and it was the people from the newspaper. They wanted to know about the supernova and how they discovered it and pictures with Amy and James with the telescope. When Amy went to school Tony wanted to say sorry for being mean to her and James and hoped that they would be friends and they could meet up all together.

30 thing that make me happy!!!

The Nike Mag.

The Nike Mag


Do you remember the movie back to the future? Wasn't it a cool movie when that amazing NIKE design just showed up? Well Marty Mcfly was the one that wore the amazing looking shoes.

Marty Mcfly and Doctor Brown had to travel thirty years to the future. They were in hill valley CA to save Marty Mcfly yet to be born children. The date of the arrival is October 21st 2015.

As we talk about the fantastic iconic sneakers Nike has released a new famous model of the Nike mag sneakers that Marty Mcfly wore in the movie though the ones were just props he wore. The Nike mag can power tie its own shoe and light up how cool is that.

The real happy news is that Nike has planned to release the additional pair Next year on 2016. The bad news is that they will be limited edition and launch in via auction. Because the company donating all the money for the Nike mag to The Michael J. Fox donation which would mean it  will be expensive for all of us to buy it.

Jesse Tree.

 We are learning about the events and prophecies of the Jesse tree. We looked it up in a website and in groups we are understanding and knowing the meaning of the prophecy and its connection to the coming of Jesus.     

http://www.loyolapress.com/the-jesse-tree-for-the-first-week-of-advent.htm


Sunday: The Jesse Tree
Ornament: The Tree
Jesse Tree: TreeThe Jesse Tree was created to help people link the custom of decorating Christmas trees to the events leading up to Jesus birth. The tradition of decorating Christmas trees actually predates the arrival of Christianity in western Europe and was adopted by the early Church. In order to associate the custom more clearly with Christianity, people made Jesse Trees—Christmas trees with decorations related to the events of Jesus' birth and the prophecies about him in the Old Testament. Many parishes and families make Jesse Trees during Advent to remind them of these events as they prepare for Christmas.


Monday: Adam and Eve
Ornament: Tree with Fruit or Apple
appleAdam and Eve and the First Sin
Genesis 3 tells how Adam and Eve's intimacy with God and with each other is disrupted. The serpent enters the scene. The serpent represents anything that can separate a person from God. The woman, with the man as her silent partner, speaks to the serpent. They examine the possibility of disobeying God. Will Adam and Eve accept God's moral order and trust in his love?
Adam and Eve — Genesis 2:4-24
The Fall of Adam and Eve — Genesis 3


Tuesday: Noah
Ornament: Rainbow or Ark
Noah and the Flood
Jesse Tree: Ark
The story of Noah is told to illustrate how deeply the human family has fallen into sinfulness. Sin is now so universal that a troubled God decides to complete the work of destruction that the human family has begun (Genesis 6:13). However, God sees that Noah is a good man and decides that humanity will survive through Noah's family. God tells Noah to build an ark, which God will use to save Noah's family and members of the animal kingdom. God is pained by and disappointed in humankind, but in his mercy he will save the human family through Noah.
Noah and the Flood — Genesis 6-9


Wednesday: Abraham
Ornament: Field of Stars
Abraham and the Covenant
Jesse Tree: Stars
Abraham stands before God, facing the future. God had promised that Abraham would be the father of many descendants, but his wife, Sarah, seems unable to have children. So Abraham believes he will die childless and that his steward, Eliezer, will be his heir. God assures Abraham that this will not happen, promising Abraham that he will have a son with Sarah. More than that, the descendants of Abraham will be as numerous as the stars in the sky.
The Call of Abraham — Genesis 12
God's Covenant with Abraham — Genesis 15


Thursday: Isaac
Ornament: Ram
ramAbraham and Offering of Isaac
Then, unexpectedly, God sends an angel with the message that Abraham must sacrifice his son Isaac. As bitter as the message is, and as hopeless as it makes Abraham feel, he obeys without hesitation. He gathers his servants and Isaac with wood for the sacrifice and sets out to the appointed place. The last part of the way he goes alone with Isaac, who is made to carry the wood for his own sacrifice. On the way, Isaac asks his father what animal will be sacrificed. Abraham answers that God will provide.
Abraham and Isaac — Genesis 22


Friday: Jacob
Ornament: Ladder
LadderJacob's Dream
While on his journey, Jacob arrives at a certain place and rests there, using a stone for a pillow. In a dream, he receives a divine revelation. He sees a ladder, or perhaps a ramp, going up from earth to heaven. The shape of Jacob's vision may have been inspired by the shape of the ziggurats of Babylon, which had ramps going up their sides to the place where the deity was said to dwell. On the ramp in Jacob's dream are angels, roaming up and down, patrolling the earth and reporting back to God. In his vision, Jacob meets God. God confirms the covenant made to Abraham and to Isaac that their ancestors will be as plentiful as the dust on the ground and will spread from east to west. Jacob will also receive God's protection wherever he goes.
Jacob and Esau — Genesis 25:19-34; 27
Jacob's Vision of God — Genesis 28:10-22
Jacob Returns to the Land of His Fathers — Genesis 31-33


Saturday: Joseph
Ornament: Sack of Grain or Coat of Many Colors
GrainJoseph and God's Providence
Pharaoh has Joseph brought before him. Joseph hears the dreams and correctly interprets their meaning. The seven fat cows and stalks of grain are seven years in which harvests will be abundant and the cows will be fat. The next seven years will be a period of famine. After interpreting the dreams, Joseph advises that Pharaoh appoint someone to oversee the harvesting and ensure that enough grain is saved in the first seven years to help Egypt survive the seven years of famine. Pharaoh agrees and appoints Joseph vizier, second in authority only to Pharaoh himself, to carry out the plan. Joseph marries an Egyptian woman and has two sons. The first he names Manasseh (“forgotten”), to show that his previous suffering has been forgotten. The second is Ephraim (“God has made me fruitful”).
Joseph and his Brothers — Genesis 37
Joseph and Pharaoh — Genesis 39-41
