I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have graciously kept me this day; and I pray that You would forgive me all my sins where I have done wrong, and graciously keep me this night.

Dear Parents,
Just a reminder about AR…As stated earlier this year, in order for a child to go on the AR field trip at the end of the year, he/she must meet goals (point goals & min. percent correct) for 3-out-of-4 grading periods. Many have already been notified if they have made the trip as of third quarter, and there are some that will still make the trip at the end of the fourth quarter. Please continue to read and discuss the AR books with your child.
Congratulations to Quincy, Geno, Jalen, and Keseanna as they have mastered all of their multiplication facts! Our first group of “M&M” Multipliers were presented with a special treat and certificate. Keep practicing at home to achieve that status!
Friday we will attend the Good Friday service at noon. Please feel free to join us for this service. School will be dismissed at 1:15.
Have a blessed Easter celebration with your family! School resumes on Monday, April 20th.

Dear Parents,
Please remember that the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) are being given this week. It is very important for children to get plenty of sleep each night and eat a good breakfast each morning. It is also very imperative that children arrive at 8:00 each morning so we may start our testing as soon as morning procedures have been completed.
Due to our ITBS testing this week, I moved memory work until Friday and there will not be a spelling test this week.
This week we begin a new novel, Ramona Quimby, Age 8. Please see the reading assignments for the week. All of the reading will be completed in class, however, review of these chapters should take place at home. There will be a packet to go along with the book, a computer assignment, and the final test over the book (AR test). It should be an enjoyable unit for the next 2 weeks.
Please find the note about the costumes for the musical in today’s papers.
Reading: Ramona Quimby, Age 8 Ch 1-5 tentatively
Multiplication/Division this week: x8 Review of other facts
Memory work (due Friday): The Apostle’s Creed (All)
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the
dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Dear Parents,
The 3rd-5th grade choir will sing at the 8:00 service this Sunday, March 15th. Children should wear their white shirts and black pants. Please meet at 7:40 in the choir room at church.
In a few weeks we will begin the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. We will spend time completing practice tests, so they will have a better understanding of the testing procedure. You will notice that last week’s reading test had a different format. The children filled in a “bubble sheet”, similar to that of the ITBS, as a practice. We will continue with this practice for the next few weeks.
This year's school musical, “Dragon Quest”, will be held April 30th at 6:30 p.m. We have begun working on our songs and it should be an exciting evening. If there is some reason that your child will not be here, please let me know soon.

Dear Parents,
We have reached the final week of school before Christmas break, and everyone is anxiously awaiting this wonderful season of our Savior’s birth. I would like to extend my Christmas blessings to everyone and wish you a wonderful time with your family.
A few reminders for this week:
1. Please have your book exchange present here by tomorrow.
2. We will have various Christmas activities on Friday. If you would like to bring in snacks for that day, please let me know by tomorrow. Snacks should be in individual baggies so they can be easily transported home (no cupcakes please).
Congratulations to our Bible Bee contestants: Maya, Jalen, Geno, Kacie!
There will be a Social Studies quiz on Thursday over Ch. 3. A study guide was sent home last Friday.
During the Christmas break, I would like to emphasize the importance of continued reading and review of math facts. Children should be ready for AR tests when they return.
Merry Christmas!

Please find the completed/graded Boxcar Children packet in the folder. The grade slip of paper needs to be signed and returned tomorrow.
We will complete our Thanksgiving packet this week. As the unit evaluation, students will write a report in class with their findings from the unit. Please have them practice writing this at home, before completing in class on Friday. We have discussed this throughout the unit. Next week we will continue in the textbook.
The “free” casual day is Friday for those third graders who have all homework turned in, and have shown appropriate behavior throughout the week.

Dear Parents,
As a reminder, the 3rd-5th grade choir will perform at “The Taste of CLS” on December 4th, beginning at 6:30. The children are to be there for the school concert, as part of their music grade.
Last week we finished our chapter book and the children took the AR test as the final test over the unit. The last project was turned in today. Look for the graded packet to come home next Monday.
Because of the short school week, there will not be a spelling list or memory work this week.
Today midterms were handed out. Please sign and return the forms by Wednesday.
God Bless you and your family on a Happy Thanksgiving!

Dear Parents,
Our computer keyboarding work is going wonderfully! Your child can practice these skills at home at www.typing-lessons.org/ . We are also practicing math drills weekly on the computer.
Math notes: We are continuing to learn new concepts, as well as review old ones. It is important that you go over side B with your child each night. Those students who receive extra help at home have a greater understanding of the concepts, and therefore perform much better during the test each week. Your continued support is invaluable!
Last week a health educator from the Peoria Co. Health Dept. visited our classroom with a program on good hygiene. Please ask your child what they learned from the presentation.
Wednesday is the first AR store day. In order to go to the AR store, a child must have a minimum of 10 points earned, and not have any library fines.

Dear Parents,
Please remember that we do not have school this Thursday and Friday, as the teaching staff will be attending the Lutheran Teachers’ Conference in Springfield.
With the short week, there won’t be any spelling or regular work in the basal reading book. This week we will enjoy the series, Amelia Bedelia. Memory work will be due on Wednesday.
A helpful website for your child to visit is www.bookadventure.org.
It provides quizzes on books, and children can earn prizes. I have my own children take the quiz on there before taking the AR test at school. It is a good review for them along with some good practice at taking chapter book tests. I hope that you find it as helpful as I do (not all of our AR books are on this program)!

The services are at 8:00 and 10:45, and the student body at our school leads them. What a wonderful way to praise the Lord!
