It is Thursday...er, Tuesday!

I sent home papers today because of the short week. We had a busy afternoon (but I can't tell you why because it is a surprise...) so I did not get a progress report ready like I had planned. I will send that home in the folders tomorrow with a note. Please look for that!

Thanksgiving Eve Service - We sing at the 6:30 pm service tomorrow evening. Students should be in our classroom by 6:15 and they can be picked up from here after the service...thank you!

Homework:

Christ Light - Ws. 1a from Monday
Catechism - Study for the test that we will take tomorrow!
Lit - Pg. 127 #1-6 in complete sentences
English - Vocabulary Word from Lesson 1
Math - Lesson 43, All

WoD: Blessings

Because most of you may not check the blog tomorrow or this weekend, my Thanksgiving note to you all:

There are many things I am thankful for: my family, my faith, food, clothing, and that I get to call Trinity "home". I am thankful to God for giving me the chance to teach your children each day. Of course I am thankful for the As that they get or the improvement in their grades, but I am most thankful for the fact that I will see each of them in heaven some day. They are truly a blessing to me as are you, parents. Thank you for being my supporters and lifting me up in prayer. 

We all have things to be thankful for and this time of year, and it is such a wonderful thing to take a moment and reflect on those things. 

May God richly bless your celebration of Thanksgiving.

Good evening,

Sorry for the late post. We had a great time canvassing tonight. Another 130 houses reached through our students..way to go! Now...pray!

The students should be working on sharing their final draft with me tonight or tomorrow morning. Parents, please look over their essay before they send it...thank you!

Ask the students about our genetics projects today. We had a great time and spent just about our whole afternoon working on it.

WoD: Wings (they were yummy :-)

What a beautiful fall day today! 

Yes, it may be chilly, but the beautiful sunshine is a blessing! Just a reminder to make sure that your student is prepared for the colder weather.  If you send them to school with a coat in the morning, that is what I will make sure they wear at recess. Encourage them to wear hats and gloves as we get even colder weather. I know it is (hopefully) a ways off, but I do require students to wear boots when it snows; however, snow pants are optional.

Reminder - take home Social Studies Fair projects. Thank you.

We sing as a school next Wednesday evening at 6:30 pm for the Thanksgiving Eve service.

I am sending home a note today (I know...it's not a Thursday...sorry!) about an extra canvassing date for this Thursday, November 15. This is entirely OPTIONAL and it is after school. I would take students after school to some of the neighborhoods that we have not been covered yet and distribute flyers till about 4:45, when it starts to get dark. We would then come back to school for some pizza. All I would ask is for $3 donation to cover costs of the pizza and juice. Parents are welcome to join me in driving and pizza. Please fill out the form if interested or if your child would just like to go.

Tuition payments for this month also came home with some students.

Wow, turned out to be more announcements than I thought...

Homework:

Christ Light - Ws. 13a from Monday
Catechism - Ws. 21 on judgement day
Lit - "The Whistling Boy" Pg. 121 #1-7 in complete sentences
English - Rough Draft of 3 paragraph expository essay...on paper, skip lines!
Math - Lesson 40 from Monday. Test tomorrow! Meet Math was today. Ask your student how they did.
Science - VoBo (ask your student to explain. Thank you to the 6th grade girls for being creative!)
History - Read Lesson 3 on Hinduism, take notes, Wb. 33

WoD: sunshine (how many songs come to mind when you hear that word? I got three...)

God's Blessings,

Miss Lau
