3rd Grade News
November 17, 2008
Our star student this week will be Lindsey. A thank you goes out to Morgen for sharing with our class about her life last week. Please keep these two families in your prayers this week.
This past week we have been working with jump ropes and hula-hoops in our physical education class. These are fun activities that they could practice at home, and also a great way to get some good exercise.
I have the following parents signed up to drive for the field trip to GreenfieldVillage on Friday: Buerkel, Ehrman, Glenn, Heissenbuettel, Helberg, Kieft, Runstadler, Specht, and Theisen. We will be leaving school at 8:45 a.m. Please make sure that your child is dressed appropriate for the weather and has on good walking shoes. They will also need a cold lunch packed for that day.
Just a reminder to bring in the party supplies in by November 25, 2008, if you signed up to bring material.
A special day is coming up for one of our classmates. Alexandra will be baptized on Saturday, November 29, 2008, at the 6:30 p.m. service at the Liberty site. She would love to have everyone there to celebrate this wonderful occasion.
We received several “Flat Stanley” adventures already this school year. He has traveled to New York, London, Ireland, and Chicago.
God bless you and your family with love and laughter.
In Christ,
Lori Lewis
