National Lutheran Schools Week!

It's here!  One of the most fun weeks in our school year...National Lutheran School Week!  Throughout the week we will be celebrating being a faith-based school that cares for others.  Today we started collecting donations for the local Union Gospel Mission to help those less fortunate in our community.  Check the schedule that went home Friday for the activities, ministries and fun that is going on during our week at school.

One of the highlights this week is having the Scholastic Book Fair in our library.  Today our class visited the book store and their 8th grade friends helped them record a wish list.  We hope you have time to shop at the book fair some time this week.  They have lots of great new books for every age and level.

This week in math we will finish our chapter on comparing measurements.  Today we learned about area.  Students practiced measuring weights and capacity in learning centers using a scale and measuring cups.

In reading we will focus on the short and long vowel 'i'.  Students will study a new book about musical instruments, learning how to formulate a question and answer it from a text.

Each day this week, we'll be busy with some type of ministry and fun. 

Think of ways your family can join in the giving,

Mrs. Luoma
