Hello,
A fun week is ahead of us–Spirit Week, 100th Day, and Valentine’s Day. Wow!
Here are some tidbits for the week:
VALENTINE’S DAY: We will be exchanging cards. Cards may be store bought or hand-made. Here is a class list so no one is accidentally forgotten. Rock, Kaitlyn, Lilly, Drew, Brooklyn, Kennedy, Jonas, Anabelle, Ezekiel, Ashlyn, Silas, Liam, Somaya, Harper, Kenzie, and Judah.
I will have a few treats for the kiddos. You may send a treat if you wish, but it is not required. This day will be busy with other activities, so there isn’t a big party per se.
SPIRIT WEEK: Please refer to the note given to your child last week. It was sent in homework folder. Also, a digital copy should have been sent to families during the week through the school. If your daughter is a mini, she dresses in red shirt and black pants on Friday since the Minis will present the school song at Pep Fest. I am also planning on taking photos for the yearbook that day.
TEST GRADES: Test grades in any class count double.
OBSTACLES: An extra page is included in the weekly folder that compiles what my kiddos and I responded to on a Christ-Light assignment. I’m sure you’ll find it interesting.
BAPTISM BIRTHDAYS: We are adding baptism dates to our birthday chart in our room. Please send a note or text informing me of your child’s baptism day. We will be celebrating around the time of my baptism birthday. (I have 14 baptism birthdays as of this typing. Thank you!) If you have searched through photos, etc. and can’t find the date, please let me know. Even a month would be great if you don’t have the exact date. Thanks.
SINGING: Our next singing opportunity is Sunday, March 2 at St. Stephen’s during the 8:00 service. The kiddos will be sitting with you and coming up to sing.
MISSION: Our new mission will be for a starter congregation in Bend, Oregon. Our goal will once again be $500. Our total so far is $236.80 which is roughly 48% of our goal. Awesome.
SPELLING TESTS: Tests are this Friday. Please practice at home using the copy that comes in the weekly folder.
POP-TOP TABS: My sister’s school is collecting pop-top tabs, monster tabs, etc. for a family using the Ronald McDonald House due to a serious injury of their son. If you aren’t collecting these for any other reason, feel free to send them to our room, and I will get them to my sister. Thanks.
STUDENT COUNCIL: Student council will meet Monday, February 10, after school until 4 pm.
SNACKS: Be sure your child is packing a snack. Also, please check in on what is being packed.
God’s blessings,
Karen Cooper
