10/21 - 10/26

In the week of 10/21/12-10/26/12 we have been working on many subjects.  In Art class we received a blank, ceramic pumpkin to paint however we would like!  In World History class we have been studying the Arabian Peninsula, its environment, and the adaptations Arabs would make to live there.  In Literature class we read the story “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” and watched the cartoon.  It was GREAT!

TRUNK-OR-TREAT was Friday!! In this event kids dress up in halloween costumes and run around from car to car trunk-or-treating!!!

ATTENTION JUNIOR HIGH!!!!!! The junior high dance is on November 2nd. The theme is GLOW!!! We require one chaperone from each class. If you are interested you can contact Mrs. Cluck!  It costs $6.00 to attend.  Students should come to the gym at 7:00 p.m. and parents should arrive to pick up at 9:30 p.m. Student Council members stay till 10:00 p.m. for clean up.

SPELLING BEE:The spelling bee representatives (Steven, Scott, and alternate Nick C.) of Zion’s 7th grade are going to be going to the Zion Lutheran high school at about the same time that the Junior High dance starts. The spelling bee kids can arrive at the dance after the spelling bee and do not have to pay!
