The students will be learning about the spy mission into Canaan, which will talk about the rewards for trusting God, and the consequences when we think we know better than God.

For the last week or so, the students have learned all about the westward movement following the Civil War. This week they will learn about how all of this migration affected the Native Americans who lived out west, and how it still continues to impact their lives today.
