                                                Grade 7 Weekly Planning Sheet

Monday, Sept. 21stth to Friday, Sept. 25th 

Here is our first Gr. 7 Weekly Planning Sheet: It will be emailed out at the beginning of the week to every student on his/her student email and every parent whose email we have on file.  Please reply to this first email with a "GOT IT" so that I know it made it through.  Also, please let me know if this is not the email you want these weekly planning sheets sent to.  Thanks!

Daily Physical Activity:   As you may already know, my students walk around Ben Lee Park and stop at the Skateboard Park from approximately 9:00 to 9:20 every morning.  Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather and has a helmet if he/she chooses to rollerblade, scooter or skateboard. 

 Picture Day:  – Tuesday, September 22th  Come dressed all spiffy and remember to brush your hair. 😉  

Bible Memory:  We are grounding ourselves in the biblical knowledge of who we are in Christ.  The memory verse for this week is: John 1:12

12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 

On Friday, September 25th, students will be asked to write this verse out in a fill in the blank format.  

Credit Auction: Our first credit auction will be at the end of the second block on Friday, September 25th!  I’ve already had some parents donate some gift cards and other wonderful items!! Woo hoo!  Thank you!   ☺

Looking Ahead:

Spelling and Vocabulary: Students need to be able to spell, define and use the word correctly in a sentence for the quiz on Friday, Oct. 2nd   Students are encouraged to create their own sentences but may memorize these sentences if they need to.  They do not need to memorize the part of speech. We will have class time to practice these.
