We have been learning about Martin Luther during our religion time this week. We are working on a Reformation project as well.
Book-It – We are participating in the Pizza Hut Book-It Program this year. Please use the monthly reading calendars to keep track of the number of minutes read each day. Remember that our goal is to read for at least 20 minutes, 6 out of 7 days each week. Please keep track of the minutes for Book-It on the calendar to turn in at the end of the month. All those who have met our reading goal will receive a certificate for a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut.
Food Drive – Hope will be collecting food for Shawnee Community Services from October 16th-18th. Classes will be competing to see who can bring in the most food and then we will build fun sculptures with the items brought by the class! How many things can we bring in to make our sculpture?
