Please begin your day with an Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be.
Last week, we worked on our small group project about the sacraments. Reconciliation is a sacrament of healing. It is the sacrament that celebrates the gift of God’s forgiveness. It also celebrates the gift of God’s love for us. We say we are sorry for our sins. We promise to turn away from sin. God always forgives us.
Think about a time you needed to ask for forgiveness. Write or illustrate how you felt after you were forgiven.

Please begin your day with an Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be.
Today is the feast of St. Joseph, the foster father of Jesus.
Jesus was the Son of God, but He needed someone to protect Him and take care of Him when He was a little boy. God the Father chose St. Joseph to be Jesus’s protector and watch over Jesus’s mother, Mary, because Joseph was a good man. Joseph worked hard and took care of Jesus and Mary. He played with Jesus when He was little, and he watched Jesus grow up. Every day Joseph counted himself blessed to live with Jesus and Mary. St. Joseph, please watch over us!
Draw a sketch of the Holy Family: Mary, Joseph, and Jesus.

Read about a 3D artist who makes pictures that pop!
https://superscience.scholastic.com/issues/2017-18/120117/making-pictures-pop.html#830L
- Now it’s your turn to design pop-up art! Think about what would make a fun 3-D image. Draw your picture on a sheet of paper and include a description of how you would make it pop! For an extra step, and if you have scissors and tape, you can try making a V-fold like Matthew Reinart describes. Try attaching your drawing to the V-fold to make it jump!
- Watch the video "Engineering the Perfect Pop" below. Do you think you would enjoy working as a pop-up book artist? Imagine that you have Matthew's job for a week, and then write a short letter to your family describing what makes the job fun and what makes it challenging.
- You read in the article that, "Making a new pop-up book takes a lot of planning. Reinhart first writes an outline showing what will be on each page." Now it’s your turn to plan a pop-up art book! Think about what you want your book to be about. What would the beginning, middle, and end of your book be? Write down an outline of your book idea. Then, draw each part of your book on a separate piece of paper. If you have scissors and tape, you can make a V-fold like Matthew Reinart describes.

Jesus was the Son of God, but He needed someone to protect Him and take care of Him when He was a little boy. God the Father chose St. Joseph to be Jesus’s protector and watch over Jesus’s mother, Mary, because Joseph was a good man. Joseph worked hard and took care of Jesus and Mary. He played with Jesus when He was little, and he watched Jesus grow up. Every day Joseph counted himself blessed to live with Jesus and Mary. St. Joseph, please watch over us!
