November 17-21, 2008 Knowing Jesus, Growing in Faith, Serving God’s Children
Dear preschool parents, www.zioncrusaders.org
Wow! What a crazy week we had last week with having to reschedule conferences and then my little girl had to be hospitalized for severe dehydration because of a stomach bug. Thanks to everyone for their prayers and well wishes. Heaven is doing much better. We have had so much stuff going around lately, so please make sure to keep your child home if they are sick.
This week in Jesus Time we continue learning that God hears our prayers, from selected Scripture verses, such as Psalm 86:6 “Hear my prayer, O Lord.” We learn that God helps us pray for our needs and for one another and that He is always there ready to listen.
On Monday we will be starting to do some “turkey talk”! We will finish up some handprint turkeys we painted last week. We will also being working on songs for our Christmas program, “The Stable Where Jesus Was Born,” which will be on Sunday, Dec. 7 at 4PM. We will be working on our Christmas program very hard this month and will take up most of our schoolwork time.
On Wednesday we have Chapel in the morning at 8:30AM, led by Pastor Jones from Bethlehem Lutheran. Our Chapel offering for the month of November goes to help support the Meals on Wheels program, which is a big need in our community. We will also be visiting our library on Wednesday. Please help your child bring something that begins with Letter Hh to school on Wednesday, as we will be working on Letter Hh. We will also have a lockdown drill on Wednesday, in case your child says something.
On Friday we will have center time that includes number recognition and matching lowercase and uppercase letters. We will also be working on some turkey songs to share with our grandparents and guests next Wednesday.
Picture retakes are tomorrow in the morning. If you would like your child to retake their school picture, please make sure to bring back the picture packet. You will be welcome to be in the room when they take your child’s picture so that you can see the results right away and make a final decision.
Grandparents’ Day will be on Wednesday, Nov. 26. This is a day when both preschool classes are welcome to invite a grandparent or other special person to come with us to Chapel at 8:30AM and then enjoy a little musical presentation. Afterwards, we’ll have a little refreshment and then your child is welcome to begin their Thanksgiving break (we usually get done around 10AM). There will be no school or daycare on Friday, Nov. 28 for Thanksgiving. Everything will resume on Monday, Dec. 1.
Please feel free to call me anytime with questions or concerns! God’s blessings on your week! Zion 342-5749 Home 716-7689 Cell 391-9046
