Hello, Parents! It
has been another fun week! We celebrated
the 100th day of school yesterday! We celebrated with 100 Day
Centers all morning with our 3rd grade friends! Can you believe that much time has gone
by? Goodness!
*Please pray for our little class, as we have had so much
sickness going around! Today, we only
had 5 students in here…THANK YOU!
*Thank you for your donations to the American Heart
Association during Timothy’s Jump Rope for Heart event! Our school raised $2, 480 for this cause, and
we had a ton of fun jumping and using the amazing hearts that God has given
us! Our own Bryce Hirsch was our school’s
biggest earner! Way to go, Bryce!
THANK YOU!

Religion- We have learned all about Daniel and the

faith and talked about the “lions” in our own lives.
Language Arts-We have been reading Sadako and the
Thousand Paper Cranes. This is such
an amazing story. Next week, we will
finish it up. We shared historical
fiction book reports on Wednesday. These
were great! Be sure to check out the

and the kiddos have really caught on! We
worked through word problems that had 2 or 3 operations, and they are doing
great!

Plant Kingdom on and have a test on Monday, February 12th.
