Lower School Review

BY SUSAN CRANFORD

The new gaga pit on the larger playground area is a HIT!!! For those of you (like me) who are not that familiar with gaga, gaga is a fastpaced, high - energy sport played in an octagonal pit. The more players, the better! It is frequently dubbed a kinder, gentler version of dodge ball and is highly addictive! Ask your 3rd - 5th grader about it! Thank you to our Senior project group, Dr. Andy Graham, Mr. Keith Owen, and Mr Nick James for getting this completed for us to enjoy!

Our fourth graders completed a planet scavenger hunt in the hall this week. They had fun getting up and moving around the building a bit while reading and exploring planet facts.

Our PreK-3 students enjoyed a visit from the Germantown SWAT team last Friday. Our very own TRA alumnus, Aaron Cox, brought the SWAT van and a patrol car These boys and girls loved this!

Mrs. Amber Adler had a great Bible lesson with kindergarten this week. She taught them the story of Jesus healing the paralyzed man. She began the lesson by discussing friendship and what kind of person makes a good friend.
