Monday newsletter 3-21-11

General
Happy the first day of spring. But from what I heard on the weather forecast this morning the rest of the week doesn't sound much like spring. Don't forget this is a short week with no school on Friday. This is a break since it is so long till Easter and Easter break. I also will be gone on Wed. and Thurs. Mrs. Meseke, Mrs. Brown, Mrs Ramsey, Mr. Petzold and I are attending the LEA Convocation in Cincinatti. LEA is our teacher organization - Lutheran Education Association -like the NEA for public school teachers. Report cards will be sent home this week Thurs. Remember to sign the sheet for 3rd quarter that you saw the report card and keep the copy. The envelope and "Quarter" note should be turned in by next Thurs. March 31st. It seems there are signs of "springitis" setting in for some of the class so a gentle reminder that school work is still very important and one's best effort should still be put forth.
Work
Since there is no school on Friday there will be no Friday memory and no spelling this week. It is a good week to work on Monthly Memory. The 3rd memory should be done by or during this week. Next week is the last week of the month. This is testing week. There is a Science test tomorrow on chapter 17, an English test Thurs. on chapter 5 - adjectives and my class has a math test on Thurs. The Social Studies test was returned today and it needs to be signed or a note or email sent by Monday. March 28. We are settling the 13 colonies in Social Studies and that is a short chapter so there probably be a test on that chapter sometime next week.
Sports
Nothing is happening with "Trinity" sports at this time. The Upward Basketball program has their end of the season Celebration Night this Friday evening. Track will probably start sometime during the first week of April or soon thereafter.

That is all for today.

In His Service,
Deanna Hollrah
