Hello,
Thank you for all the treats, gifts, notes, cards, lunch, and kind words this past week. I truly felt appreciated!! My bucket was filled. (The kids know what that means.)
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms. Thank you most especially for raising your children in the Lord.
Excitement continues with the live plants and animals in our classroom. The seed pods are getting larger and longer on our Fast Plants. We now have 4 Painted Lady butterflies in the net “house”. Mealworms continue to morph into darkling beetles. Soon, the seeds will be harvested and the animals will be released.
Thank you to everyone who donated to the Barnett’s baby shower. It was a success.
Here are some tidbits for this week:
SUB: I will be heading to MLC this coming Thursday. Mrs. Rachel Reichert will be subbing for me. Woot! Woot!
SHADOWING: Fourth graders will be shadowing the 5th grade this coming Friday.
SECOND GRADERS: Six of the 2nd graders shadowed in our classroom this past Thursday. The rest will shadow this coming Tuesday. We enjoyed our very well-behaved guests and look forward to the next group. The third and fourth graders did an awesome job helping our guests.
MEMORY WORK: This past week was a better week for memory work. Thanks for checking in.
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. The children and chaperones will need sack lunches that day.
SERMON STUDIES: Please double-check via Fast Direct to see how many your child has completed.
MISSION: Our 4th quarter mission for MLC continues. Our total stands at $ 370.60 which is roughly 74% of our goal. Thank you for blessing our pastor and teacher training college with your offerings. We have 3 more weeks to bring in gifts for this mission and meet the remaining balance of $294.40. I’m confident we can meet that goal!
TEACHER/STUDENT DATES: Tacos with the Teacher continues this week. Ten Guesses, Uno Attack, Taco Cat, and Slapzi were the activities of choice for this past week. Since I’m older, I had a little more knowledge when it came to Ten Guesses. Other than that, the kiddos beat the teacher. Kiddos signed up for future dates are: Ezzy will be 5/ 13 and Judah 5/20.
SPELLING TESTS: There will be a test on Friday.
God’s blessings,
Karen Cooper
