Dear Parents,
I hope that all of you had a nice relaxing vacation from school. I know many of you had plans and I hope the weather did not deter them.
This week we will be reading the story Three Little Kittens by Paul Galdone. Along with this story we will be working with the letter K. I am also sending home two words cards ‘have’ and ‘little’ for you to add to the stack. Believe me it does help when the children know the sight words. In math, we will work with addition. We are just about finished with this unit and I must say some of the children are very good at adding. For circle time we will talk about the organs of our body. Our Bible lessons will be “The Story of the Three Servants” and “The Workers in the Vineyard.” From these lessons we will learn how God gives us his grace and he expects us to be faithful.
I want to let all of you know how well the children sang at the memorial service. I got many compliments on their singing, but more importantly, they provided a powerful message. Miss Beutel and her family were very grateful for the song and expressed that many times. The class also got the family a potted plant which they put on the table up in front of church. Thank you so much for your donations and cooperation.
I must say too, on behalf of Miss Beutel and myself, we thank you very much for all of the nice valentine cards and gifts that you sent our way. It was very thoughtful of you to think of us.
This week is spirit week here at school. If you choose to participate, I want you to know that on Tuesday, we will have red, white and blue day. Each teacher in the primary grades has the option to choose whatever they want to do and that is what I want. Just as a reminder, Wednesday is dress-up day, Thursday is crazy day, and Friday is green and gold day. These days can be fun so just have a good time with it.
On Wednesday evening, we will start our Lenten services here at Apostles. We have two service at 5:00 pm and 7:00 pm. You are welcome to come and join us. We also have a soup supper in between the services. On March 11, the children will be singing and I hope you will be able to make it to that service.
I believe that is all for this week. Have a great week!
Mrs. Kronebusch
