Badger Babble Update
WEEKLY BABBLE - It was a busy week for the fifth graders. The students started Growth and Human Development Class, worked on their Decade Project and Presentation, continued DARE class with Officer Schroeder, attended Lenten worship service, reviewed the 10 facts for the Mighty Multiplier Program, and finally wrapped it up with making bookmarks and Easter cards for Family Friday. This is the last week before spring break. If you haven't already, please RSVP and let us know how many grandfriends' will be attending Grandfriends' Day this Friday.
DECADE PROJECT - All fifth grade students researched a decade of their choice and created a special poster along with a presentation for Grandfriends' Day on March 22. Unfortunately, due to weather, GSLS had to cancel Grandfriends' Day. Students still did their presentations on that Friday morning. The students did a great job! Please check out the photos of students by clicking HERE.
HOMEWORK HELP - Mrs. Baker is offering a Homework Help time after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 4:00 pm. If your child is interested in participating, please email and let us know. This is a time to strictly work on homework and ask questions about subjects not understood. If your child would like to bring a snack, they are welcome to.
NLSW 2024 - March 3 - 9th we are celebrated National Lutheran Schools' Week (NLSW)! Our school theme this year is, "Connected" based on John 15:5. We had an enjoyable week with dress up days, a spelling bee, regional chapel service, and a duck hunt contest. Check out pictures HERE.
SCIENCE FAIR COMING IN APRIL - Please note that the fifth graders are working on their Science Fair projects. Each student chose a topic for their project. The school office has tri-fold boards available to buy for the Science Fair for $3.00 each. Or, if you want to purchase your own, please get a 36"x48" tri-fold board. The GSLS Science Fair will be held on April 17 at 6:30 pm.
MIGHTY MULTIPLIER PROGRAM - The fifth graders are participating in the Mighty Multiplier Program. What is a mighty multiplier? A mighty multiplier is a person who knows all of their multiplication facts….perfectly! Each students is on a team while studying, learning, reviewing, and quizzing. Students use flashcards, wrap-ups, and quizzes to get their facts down. They test and earn points for their team. They will do this using multiplication.com. The program will run for the next eleven weeks. Encourage your child to practice their facts at home. If they have their facts down, computation problems will be so much easier to do.
FIRST PLACE TEAM -
READING BUDDIES- We were introduced to our Kindergarten Reading Buddies before Christmas break. Students will enjoy a special time with their buddies coming up next week. Students will have an opportunity to enjoy time reading books and doing a special Valentine activity. We look forward to doing something in March with our buddies.
FOURTH QUARTER OFFERING - GSLS 's third quarter offering went to A Place of Refuge. This ministry supports the women and children who are served by advocates and those living at the Refuge House in Milwaukee. The house is a safe place that provides a loving, nurturing environment for women and their unborn children. The advocates encourage women to make positive changes in their lives that will offer opportunity, direction and hope for their futures. Thank you for supporting this mission. Fourth quarter offering information is coming soon!
BADGER DAY - Each Friday we celebrate Badger Day. This is always a fun Friday for the students. We introduced our newest hero, Hezekiah. Students are excited to learn more about this Bible hero. We are watching the movie I Can Only Imagine, a real life story based on Mercy Me's 2001 Christian rock ballad, this faith-based drama follows the emotional life story of the song's composer, Bart Millard.
