*Our Famous Missourian Living Museum is NEXT WEDNESDAY! We have been busy getting ready! Your child is finishing up their biography
rug, and writing down facts that they will share at the museum. What can you do? Help them find something to wear that would

When? Wednesday, May 15th, from 10:00 a.m.-11:30
a.m.

Why? The 4th grade class has been studying
Missouri history and we want to share some of our knowledge with you!
*We will have our Multiplication Masterpiece party after
school on Wednesday (5/14)! Right now,
we have 5 students attending! We will
test Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday next week to see if any others can
join! They can do this!
*Friday is our field trip!
To culminate our studies of Missouri History, we are going to Harry S.
Truman Library and Missouri Town on Friday, May 17th! We will leave school at 8:45 and head to
Truman Library first (500 W US Hwy 24, Independence, MO 64050) for our tour at
9:15. We were able to receive a scholarship for this, so the students are
free. Adults are $8.00. The tour is about two hours long. Afterwards, we will head across the street to
McCoy Park, quickly eat our sack lunches and play for a bit. Then, we will head back this way to Missouri
Town (8010 E Park Rd, Lee's Summit, MO 64081) for our tour at 12:30. Students are $4.00 and adults are $3.00 each. This will last about an hour and a half. If we have time, we may stop and play before
we come back to school again too. We
will need drivers for this event, so if you can, please sign-up below. What a fun day!
In a nutshell:
Students: $4.00 and a sack lunch
Parents: $11.00 and a sack lunch
*Preschool and 8th Grade Graduation is next Friday, May 17th
at 7:00 p.m. ALL students are highly
encouraged to attend, as the band and choir groups are both going to be
performing. Since Timothy is such a
family, it will be even more meaningful to have our whole school there to send
off our graduates with our prayers and support.
*We will have Tim-Olympics on Monday and Tuesday, May 20th
and 21st. Now, you may be
asking, WHAT IS TIM-OLYMPICS? We really
enjoy our family-like atmosphere at Timothy, so we’ve utilized the final days
of school in the past to put kids into groups, celebrate our learning with a
variety of games, and just have FUN. The
teachers from 4th-8th Grade collaborate to create games that review ALL we’ve
learned, from religion to math to science to PE. It’s fun to see the kids work together and
shine in their strengths. One of our favorite
events is the lip sync, where kids get to show off their creative side! It’s always a big hit.
* Timothy Lutheran yearbooks are now on sale! Ordering will be available up until our last
day of school. Yearbooks cost $13. You’re welcome to order by sending back the
order form/flier that came home last week OR you can visit www.inter-state.com/yearbook
and enter the code 32402K. You’re
welcome to pay with cash or check payable to Timothy Lutheran School. (If ordering online, debit/credit is an
option.) If you’ve lost your original
order form, Mrs. Anderson has some in the office.
*Be sure to update your calendars for our last day of school
which will now be Wednesday, May 22, with a 1:00 dismissal.
Here is what we have been up to in the classroom:
Religion- This week, we finished up Units 7 and 8 and
tested over them this morning. We will
finish up the year discussing the disciples and their work here on earth after
Jesus returned to heaven. We finished up
memory work this week!
Reading/MO History-We finished up our books about
Harry Truman! We will continue talking
about early Missouri next week, and will test over all of that information on
Wednesday. The kids are ready! We will not have spelling words next
week. Some of the kids that were
finished with their book report biography rugs shared with them class. We were able to learn about the famous
Missourians: Harry Truman, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Mark Twain, and Molly
Brown. :) The rest of them will finish them up on
Monday.
Math- This week, we worked with fractions—finding
equivalent ones, putting them in simplest terms, and putting them in
order.
P.E.-We played “Hook-On” tag!
Music-During choir, the students practiced songs from
previous musicals and songs for this year’s graduation! They also earned a fun game party for good
behavior. That makes this teacher very
proud…
Art-We worked on our rugs and Mother’s Day cards for
you! Happy early Mother’s Day!
