ject. They also like the slight challenge within the simplicity of the
project which gave some contrast
to the piece.
The eighth grade class did a
3-D perspective drawing of a landscape scene. They learned about
how to make objects look like it
was coming out of the page. They
also liked the tranquilizing atmosphere that they were in as they got
to relax and draw their landscape
scene.
Overall, our students liked the
new program and hope they can
experience it again. From underwater scenes to our own school
hallways, there is always something interesting to draw and express your feelings on a canvas.

Devotion:
For God so loved the world that the gave his only beloved son that whoever believes
in him would not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 God has loved us forever and
forgives our sins every single day. We thank him for dying on the cross so that we may
live on earth. God has gave us a miracle, and we
should be thankful for Christmas and the gift that we
got that day. The gift that we got on Christmas is the
best gift that we could ever imagine. On Christmas
our Savior was born, and He gave us the best gift that
we could ever receive. Christmas isnt about the presents or the money. Its about our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ. We need to celebrate Christmas the way
its supposed to be celebrated.
Prayer:
Dear God, We ask that you will be with us today and bless the rest of the year. We thank you for the
things that you give us every day and for sending your Son to be born in a manger on Christmas.
Bless us this Christmas season and help us have a good break. In your holy and precious name we
