Memory
work:
While we were still sinners, Christ
died for us. Romans 5:8
Dear
Parents,
Holy Week is here. This is one of my
favorite weeks to teach. The children
know the Passion story, love to hear it again and want to share it with others.
Chapel this week will be on Thursday, which is Maundy Thursday. The fourth graders will be presenting chapel
at 8:30. Then we will have an end of the
day chapel service at 2:15. The
afternoon service will be a quiet, somber service remembering the events of
Good Friday. You are welcome to join us for either or both of the services. There
will be inside pick-up on Thursday afternoon.
We are encouraging everyone to come and leave quietly out of respect for
our Savior, Jesus.
In math, we have moved on to adding
and subtracting three-digit numbers. Most of the children are doing very well
with this concept. A few are still working at recognizing when they need to
regroup. Please take a few moments to look over your child’s homework each night. You can help catch any errors and take the
time to explain them to your child.
On Wednesday, April 24th,
the second grade classes will go to Lutheran High School South to present a
chapel service. We will leave at 10:00
and be back by 11:15. Some of the
students in our class volunteered for speaking parts. They received copies of the script
today. If possible, we would like the
students to memorize their parts, or at least be extremely familiar with them
so that they can say the words confidently.
Next week is our operetta week. We will have rehearsals each day. On Thursday (the 25th), there will
be a dress rehearsal at 1:30 p.m. (Grandparents and others are welcome to join
us for the dress rehearsal). “Oh Chicken
of Little Faith” will be presented by grades one through four on Thursday evening,
April 25th at 7:00. The
students should come to the classrooms at 6:45 p.m. Before that time they are to stay with their
parents.
We do not have school on Good Friday
or on Easter Monday. I hope that your family has a wonderful Easter!
Yours
in Christ,
Janet
