Hello, Parents! This
will be a short and sweet note, as I am headed out of town this evening. My two oldest daughters are in the Golden
Regiment marching band at Blue Springs High School and they are competing in Indianapolis
this weekend, so we are going to watch and cheer them on! Mrs. Stack will be the 3rd/4th
grade substitute. Mrs. Barnett and Mrs.
Carrasco will also be here...and we are all set for tomorrow!
Here are highlights of this week:
Religion-We talked about how we are ALL saints—forgiven,
cleansed, LOVED children of God! We have
been learning the commandments too. This
week, we finished up the 1st and the 2nd.
Memory for next week: (meaning of the 2nd
commandment)
November 8-What does this mean? We should fear and love God so we do not
curse, swear, use satanic arts, lie, or deceive by His name,
November 11-but call
upon it in every trouble, pray, praise, and give thanks.
Math-3rd grade is learning long
subtraction with borrowing and 4th grade is working on multiplication. They will be tested over those smaller facts
next week, so please urge them to review!
Social Studies-We “traveled” to Washington, D.C., and
have learned about the Lincoln Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial, the WWII
Memorial, and the Washington Monument. It
is loads of fun!
Art-We have learned
all about Georgia O’Keefe, her life, her love of nature, and her beautiful
artwork! We are beginning to create
flowers in the style of Georgia O’Keefe, and will place these in a collage for
our action this month! Be on the
lookout!
Writing/Computer Lab-We learned how to write haiku
poems this week, and goodness, we are doing a great job. They are beautiful thoughts about
nature. We will be publishing these and
putting them in a classroom book soon. Love ‘em!
P.E.-Bombardment!
Music-Happy Birthday, Mrs. Pennington! We have been going over our songs for Advent,
and for our upcoming date in church, November 13th.
