Hello,

Our Fast Plants are speedily on-the-grow—-hence the name.  We started measuring their progress this week. The caterpillars are now in their pop-up tent. Many more mealworm larvae are going through the pupa stage and turning into Darkling Beetles.  If you move the container and listen, you can hear them moving about.

Lent art adorns the halls with a transition to Easter and spring coming this week.  Feel free to walk through and notice.

Here are some tidbits for this week:

 

MEMORY WORK: This quarter contains some memory work days on Mondays, as well as, the regular Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Please note this change

 

OWW: The field trip to Old World Wisconsin is Thursday, May 22 from 8 to 3.  Thank you to those who have signed up to drive and chaperone.

 

SERMON STUDIES: Pages are available for your child to take and use when he or she needs another copy. Thank you parents for helping your child with this.  There have even been students encouraging each other.  As one of our pastors stated, “This is an activity in faith formation.” 

        As stated when this initially started, I do include this with Christ Light.  As another pastor mentioned, “Just like memory work, we are not grading faith when we have the students complete such activities and record them for class.”  By now it would have been possible to have at least two studies turned in.  I will turn the (m for missing) on Fast Direct into a 0 on Monday until those are turned in.  Thank you.

 

NIGHTLY READING: The journal was due this past Thursday, April 17. Any late journals will be marked at zero until completed. Then the grade will turn into the points acquired minus points for late work. 

 

SINGING: Our next singing opportunity is this Sunday for Easter.  Children will sit with parents until it is time to sing and then return to you after. 

 

MISSION:  Our 4th quarter mission for MLC continues.  Our total stands at $ 213.60  which is 42.72% of our goal.  Thank you for blessing our pastor and teacher training college with your offerings.

 

NO SCHOOL: There will be no school on Monday, April 21.

 

TEACHER/STUDENT DATES:  Tacos with the Teacher continues this week. It has been fun learning to play“Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza”.
