Week 17

We have just a short time together before Christmas break, but so much to accomplish! Students have been working hard. This week they took their memory test for quarter 2, finished up their AR points, turned in a History Timeline project, and have been working on a Literature creative writing project (connected with "A Christmas Carol"). We also had the opportunity to participate in the 3rd and 4th grade Advent service and a faith family activity.

We have more to look forward to before our Christmas break. See information below:

Christmas concert… is Tuesday, December 16^th starting at 7 PM.  Strings, bells, band and choirs will perform at this concert.  What a great way to support and enjoy our children's talents!

 

Geography Bee... will be held Tuesday the 16^th starting at 9 AM.  Bee is held in the gym. 7th graders worked through the qualifying questions in History this week.  Congratulations to Will T. & Alex W. who answered 7 out of 7 preliminary round questions and will serve as our 7th grade representatives!  Adam R. answered 6 out of 7 and will be the 7th grade alternate.  Way to go guys!!

Our Christmas Party... will be December 19th from 1:30 - 2:30. Once again, room moms are putting in the time. If you are able to offer any help or supplies please let Mrs. Wadley, Mrs. Horton, or Mrs. Paske know what you can do to help. Remember Friday, December 19th is a FULL day of school.

Christmas Wreath Art Projects... turned our beautifully!! Students worked primarily out of the classroom on this project due to the number of Fridays off school.  I am amazed at the different creative ideas in each project.  I hope these wreaths can decorate your home with Christmas season or serve as a great gift for a loved one.

Christmas Eve Services: Celebrate Christ's birth!           

December 24^th services at Zion will be held: 3:00, 5:00, 11:00

Christmas Day service 9:00 AM

All 7th grade families will be in my prayers this Christmas Season as we turn our hearts toward the coming Savior.  May you feel the Advent HOPE, PEACE, JOY, and LOVE that only out Lord and Savior brings to us!
