Notes
After 40 years of teaching and 31
years as an administrator, I am now saying goodbye to many students, collages,
and friends. After 1000 of these
Epistles, I must write my last one.
Changes occur in life. But, one
thing never changes – the love and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. He made it possible not to say goodbye but to
say until we meet in heaven. I thank
everyone that had an impact in my ministry.
Have a blessed summer. Until we
meet again, God bless every one of you.

Classroom information
Mrs. Frey (P-3 & P-4)
Preschool
is saying goodbye this week! We are creating graduation crowns and getting our
songs ready for our parents! 4’s AM class will meet with their chapel buddies
one last time. On the last day we will pass out portfolios and certificates and
have a potluck party! We are giving glory to God for a great school year, and
wishing all of our students the best for next year!
Mrs.
Reynolds (PK & P-2)
Pre-2 is having their end of the year party
and saying good-bye! We have had an amazing year! It has been a blessing
watching them grow!
Pre-K is
continuing to review letters and putting together our portfolios for the end of
the year. We are practicing songs for the end of the year party and talking about
what we will do this summer. We are looking forward to our Picnic Tuesday the
24th!
Mrs.
Sherman (K)
Kindergarten
will wrap up the school year learning about maps and American symbols. The boys
and girls will make an American symbols book. The full day students will
also complete a guided drawing of the Statue of Liberty. At Bible time,
the class will hear the account of Lydia. They will be reminded that God
works through all people to come to faith in Jesus and be saved. During math,
they will review time, money, shapes and skip counting. They will solve number
stories too. The full day students will complete their books of cvce words and
play several sight word and math review games.
Mrs.
Reisenbichler (1)
We made it to the last full week of
school. This week we focused on how Saul ways made new and equipped to
serve the Lord. In math, we completed our course of study and
tested. Our science based stories are ready for printing and look
fabulous. We also completed a STEM project this week designing and
building farm fences. It has been a wonderful year filled with many
blessings.
Ms. Rhonemus (2)
We almost have a full grown frog in
the second grade classroom! However, no one else (tadpole) has sprouted legs
yet. As part of our reading curriculum we are learning about using
graphic features found in a text about the life cycle of plants. We are also
refreshing our memory of persuasive writing by using the "Oreoes"
method. In math we are continuing to hone our change making skills and
working on multiplication. Seventh and eighth grade began learning about energy
after their trip.
Mrs. Mayo (3-4)
It's exciting
and sad to know this is the last full week of school for the year. The
students have learned so much - but we're all ready for summer! We'll be
wrapping up a lot of things this week. In religion we'll study the
account of Paul and Timothy and discuss how we should boldly proclaim God's
word to the world. We will finish reading Ralph S. Mouse and watch
a movie about Ralph to celebrate the end of the book and the end of the
year. We will learn about the last 2 states - Alaska and Hawaii - in
social studies. In science we will learn about science and
medicine. In math the 3rd graders will review length, volume,
weight, and capacity. The 4th graders will have fun working with
transparent mirrors this week as they work with lines of reflection and
symmetry.
Mr. Postenrieder (5-6)
In
our Bible time this week we performed some more experiments to illustrate
Biblical truth through science. In 5th grade math we worked on
collecting, graphing, and interpreting data. We also took our Unit 12 test. In
6th grade math we played an algebraic addition game and solved
percent problems using proportions. We also took our final test! In our
Language Arts time we completed our narrative papers on a life experience. In
Social Studies we reviewed the countries of the Western Hemisphere and had a
final exam over the countries. In Science we continued our look at “Living
Resources.” We continued to monitor our
bluebird houses. We hoped to plant flowers in the large flower bed.
Mr. Mayo (7,8)
This has been
quite a week for our class. They
were/are (depending on when you read this) in Tennessee with Mr. Reisenbichler. Next week, the 8th graders
graduate, and we celebrate the last day of school for this year. Thank you, parents, and especially St. Mark’s
Lutheran Church members for your support throughout this school year. Thank YOU, students, for sharing your lives with
me.
Mr. Reisenbichler (7-8)
In religion we are discussing addictions.
In 7th grade and 8th
grade math the students are finishing their end-of-year test. The students are constructing a key ring
using a CAD program on the computer and them printing it on a 3D printer in STEM.
