11/15 Week 11 Winter Dance and More!

 

11/14/25   Nora W  and Evan Sweet

This week we started our Christmas project. We

 also had our veteran service. We also started

 to finish our advent service. Also coming up is thanksgiving

 break and the thanksgiving food drive.

 This week we also finished our novel.

 

Dear Parents,

Second quarter is in full swing!  Students are working hard to learn our songs and

 drama for Advent.  We are eager to lead you in worship on Dec. 3.  In S.S., we have

 been busy studying physical features in North America and creating “postcards” from 

key features.  Math sees us learning the Order of Operations (see the video posted on

 the Daily Assignment Sheet linked below if you need a refresher.)  This will lead into

  writing and solving algebraic expressions which the G class started this week.   And 

finally, we wrapped up our study of the Reformation in Religion.   Enjoy hearing our 

modern take on Luther’s 95 Theses - who would have used social media today instead 

of the church door bulletin board.

WINTER DANCE News from Student Council

Hi everyone!  Our Winter Dance is Friday, December 5th from 7:00-9:30 PM. The doors 

will open at 6:50 and students will have to pay a $5 entry fee but have a chance to win a 

door prize! Once students arrive, we ask that they do not leave early that night. The theme 

is Polar Express and we encourage everyone to wear their coziest Christmas/Holiday

 jammies! Snack and drinks are provided so no outside food or drink is allowed. This 

event is for Zion students only. See you there!

Daily Assignment sheet:

When illness hits!

It's that time of year!   It's no fun being sick and especially no fun trying to do school from home. 

* Please email me and Mrs. Holtz if your child is ill and indicate whether you are able to pick up HW

*Books and materials are available at 3:00 in the school office foyer

*The Daily Assignment Sheet is where to find assignments  (link above and in GC- homeroom).  Note tabs at the bottom for the correct week and look for links to lesson slides, etc

 

If a child is sick multiple days,  I encourage them to work one day at a time (vertically) down the assignment doc to stay organized and complete one day's work at a time.  Not all assignments are digital, so not all are not posted on an individual student's Google Classroom homepage.  Remind your child to email teachers questions.    Here is more from our Family Handbook:

In general, when students return they should have prepared as a minimum the lessons due the first day of their absence. All lessons should be made up within the same number of school days as were missed, up to three school days. In special circumstances a parent may request a teacher or administrator to consider an extension. Prior to a planned absence, a parent may request advance assignments with the understanding that these assignments may not yet be available. Assignments that have been provided in advance are due on the day the student returns; otherwise the assignment is subject to late-work penalties.
