Dear Parents,
Week at a Glance
This week in handwriting we are practicing the letter “C”. In language we are learning about subject-verb agreement. In religion this week we are learning how to use hymnals for chapel and learning about Holy Week. For memory we learned Psalm 119:105 which tells how God’s Word leads us through life. Our math lessons this week are on ordering and comparing numbers. In choir we are learning about musical phrases. In science we are continuing our study of seasons and preparing for the science fair. Our social studies lessons this week are focused on barter and money.

Read-a-thon
Hope Lutheran School has decided to hold a Read-a-Thon this year!
Read-A-Thons actually get your reader excited about reading and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child to read even more.
Our Read-A-Thon starts Monday April 8, 2024.
About one week before our Read-A-Thon starts we will send home instructions on how to activate your reader’s personal page. This is where you will be able to view and record their progress.
We encourage you to activate your reader’s account today by clicking on https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/313137323738/1 and following the simple instructions.
We’ve chosen Read-A-Thon because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.
We hope everyone participates.
Thank you so much!

Memory
Luther’s Morning Prayer
I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.
Miss Hannah Christian
