Newsletter for the week of April 1st


April 1, 2019

Jesus said, “Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.”
John 13:34


Dear Parents,
Happy April Fool’s Day!  It is always fun to see what second grade humor comes with this day.  Last Friday, I told them we would have five homework assignments on Monday, April 1st.  It took them a few minutes to figure out that I was joking as it would be April Fool’s Day!
A big thank you goes to Mrs. Spangler for spending Friday afternoon with us and teaching us how to make prints.  The prints are beautiful and will be displayed shortly.  We all learned a lot!
Our math lessons will focus on mixed numbers and money amounts as well as multiplying by 5.  In social studies we will talk about wants and needs as we continue our study of the economy.  Please remind your child to practice his/her memory verse each day and then be ready to say it on Friday.  Some of the children are trying to memorize the verses at the last minute.  The goal is to commit to memory the words from the Bible.  These words will then be a help and comfort to us as our life goes on. 
The April book orders are coming home this week.  Please place any orders on or before Friday, April 12th.  Again, if you need any books held aside, just let me know and I will get them to you without your child knowing.
Last week in an email, you should have received the invitation for Grandparents’ and Special Friends’ Day.  Please be sure to share this with those who might be able to join us on April 25th for that special day.  That is also the day of the performance of our grade 1-grade 4 musical.  We will have a dress rehearsal at 1:30 and then the performance that evening at 7:00.  This day is always a highlight of the school year, so be sure to mark your calendars!
Thanks for reading.  Have a great week!                                                        


Yours in Christ,
Janet Leet
