Week 27

 Hello Families!

This week we looked at what balls do and we did some experiments with which balls roll the farthest and which balls bounce the highest. We also learned about Zaccheus and how Jesus' love changed him and helped him want to make better choices. 

Next week we will start our unit on weather! We will be exploring lots of different kinds of weather. We will also start talking about Holy Week leading up to Easter. 


Upcoming Dates: 

No School: March 16

Spring Break: April 3-10


From Rose Park: 

Guinea Pig Sleepovers? Is your family interested in caring for a guinea pig over Spring Break? It’s a great way to try out having a pet for a short time! If so, please contact Mrs. VanderZwaag (kvanderzwaag@hollandchristian.org) to connect. Thanks!

 Hello Families!  We made it through our first week of school! We had SO much fun getting to know your students and teaching them some of our routines! In these next couple of weeks I am sure some of our friends will still feel some big emotions as they get used to the routine of coming to school. This is totally normal and we will keep giving lots of hugs and lots of encouragement!  Next week we will keep learning our school routines, and we will take our first field trip! On Wednesday we will get on a bus and head to the High School for our all School convocation. If possible, please drop your child off by 8:20 so we can get to the bus on time.  Things To Know:  Walk-a-thon T-shirt: There is a QR code outside of my room to sign up your student for a walk-a-thon t shirt. Please sign them up on Monday if you haven't already done so!  Upcoming Dates (Details to follow as the dates get closer): Post Family Farms: September 22 *Remember, each student needs an...
