Celebrating Lutheran Schools Week 2012

   To start the week, we had a special chapel in the gym and had hat day where we wore any hat we wanted all day long. There were some simple hats, some silly hats, and a few interesting hats as well.
   On Tuesday we had Sports Team Day. Students could wear their favorite sports team shirt or jersey.
   Wednesday was Pajama Day.  People wore pajamas or sweats and Mr. Nelson let us bring in a stuffed animals if we wanted to.  We even wore slippers and robes, so we would be comfy!
   Thursday was Mixed-up/Wacky Dress Day - you could wear mixed up, un-matched and backwards clothes.  That was a real hoot seeing what combinations people came up with!  In class Mr. Nelson taught us how to make rope!  We had a rope making device we all got to help out with.  Real Cool!
   Friday was Eaglewear Blue and Gold Day to show off our school colors. We also ended the week by having All-School Relays in the Gym! We LOVE our Lutheran School and Lutheran Schools Week.  It was the best week ever!!!!!!!!!!

4N Chapel 2012 - Jesus Is Our Lifesaver

A Slide Show of our Chapel

We were given the chance to lead the chapel service for the whole school in March.  Our 4th grade class lead everyone in prayers, scripture readings, and songs.  Some of us did a skit entitled"A Day at the Beach" which was based on the parable of the good Samaritan. We wanted to teach everyone that God loves us and we should go love one another too.  We loved the chance to lead and teach about Jesus.

Owl Pellet Day

   In class we dissected owl pellets.  Owl pellets are balls of fur and bones that owls cough up because they don't have teeth. We dug through the pellet, took it carefully apart and found some mouse skulls a whole bunch of bones! One person found a pelvis! It was kind of disgusting at first, but we got used to it and we got to take the bones home!
   We also learned the owl pellet song, which we all love, watched a few videos, and Mr. Nelson played a very sneaky (but funny) trick on the class.Thank you to Mrs. B and Mrs. M  for helping during the dissection. - From Molley and Evan
