The Musical, Trivia Night, School of Economics, and more...

Dear Parents,

We’ve had a fun week…and we are SO excited about the band concert and spring musical TONIGHT!  There is electricity in the air!  Just a quick reminder: Students need to be in their classrooms at 6:00. 

They should wear:

•             Tan, brown, gray, or denim shorts

•             A plain colored shirt preferably with no writing

•             Tan, brown, or black sandals or flip flops

We will have tunics for each child.

*Mid-terms will come home on Monday!

*Trivia Night is Friday, April 20, 2018 at 6 P.M. here at Timothy!  It’s 80’s night!  This is a HUGE fundraiser for the school, and tons of fun…reserve your table now! 

*The 4th-6th Graders will be going to the School of Economics on Tuesday, April 24.  We have been busy, busy, busy working on this!  This week, we had job interviews, received our job assignments, met as shops, filled out passports, and made our shops signs.  Next week, we will work on our loan applications and price the items we will sell.  The cost for this field trip is $15. Please send that in as soon as you can.  Students will NOT need to pack a lunch, as this fee includes food for them.

Here is what else we have been up to:

Religion: We talked about how Jesus is our Good Shepherd, and that NOTHING can snatch us out of His hand.  We discussed the temptations in life, about how we may doubt our faith,  but our Father is always faithful, and always there.  This is such a blessing that we often take for granted.  We also had some AMAZING discussions about heaven today! 

 Language Arts: We read a story entitled The World According to Humphrey, which talked about a family who spend too much time being “plugged-in.”  We had some great conversations about this!  We also picked out our book for our last book report, a biography about a famous Missourian.  We received directions for our projects, and talked about our Famous Missourian Living Museum, which we “do” here at school on May 16^th.  Please mark your calendars! 

Math-We learned how to multiply whole numbers and fractions and reviewed Chapter 8.  We will have our test over fractions on Monday. 

Missouri History-We finished up chapter 4, discussing Missouri’s role in the Civil War.  We reviewed today and will continue to do so on Monday.  We will test over this chapter next Friday.  I have attached the study guide that I have sent home.  I will also send home our Jeopardy game next week to help study!

This week in…

Art-We completed our painted pictures about our favorite memories. 

Writing-We worked on taking notes!

P.E.-We began working on track and field events---conditioning, long jump, and sprinting.

Music-We practiced the music, songs, and lyrics for the musical. 

Have an AMAZING weekend!  See you tonight!

Blessings,

Kim
