Mrs. Eckstrand’s Room

This week our Jesus story is “Jesus Died for Me”. We remembered the story of Jesus dying on the cross because He loves us more than anything. His dying on the cross paid for all of our sins. “Forgive us our sins” is our memory treasure.


For our Science and Social Studies this week we are focusing on the Titanic, obviously 😊 We have learned what icebergs are and their sizes, metal eating bacteria, visited Belfast, enjoyed the first-class view, and even made our own first-class view while learning that lifeboats can only hold so many people.

In Art we became our own ship designer and had fun using oil pastels to design our ships.

Preschool: Our full alphabet review has begun, and we are using our fine motor skills to decorate and make our letters. This week we decorated T, I, A, and C. We are reviewing all our numbers as well and will enjoy activities and games to reinforce and memorize them.

Kindergarten: During Math we are finishing up coins and their values, as well as trading them out for each other. We will test on Friday. In Reading we focused on Rr and decorating the new superkids club bus as a rainbow. We also reviewed our primary colors. We will test on Thursday.


Thank you all for meeting with me this week in conferences. I’m always excited to check in and continue to focus on keeping every child learning.


Mrs. Utsch’s Room

In 1st grade Math we used nonstandard units to measure and compare lengths of objects. In Reading we read words with the ar and or patterns, decoded words with the er, ir, and ur spelling pattern, and read the story “Fire”.


In 2nd grade Math we identified and drew three-dimensional and two-dimensional shapes. In Reading we read pattern words that have the long a spelling pattern spelled ai, ay, ey, eigh, ange, and -able, used capitalization rules in a title, and used comparative and superlative adjectives.


In 3rd grade Math we described shapes, described angles and sides in shapes, and defined quadrilaterals. In Reading we are reading “Shiloh” by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor.


In Religion we learned that God gave David faith and helped him kill Goliath. God has given us a strong faith and gives us help in times of trouble. Jonathan, King Saul’s son, protected David when his father tried to kill him. Christian friends are blessings from God and we want to act as true Christian friends.


Mr. Gephart’s Room

Hi Parents, Family, and Friends,

Here is a look into the classroom this week.


In Reading the 4th-5th graders are reading “Island of the Blue Dolphins”. What is going to happen when the Aleuts from Russia come to the Island? Will they be friend or foe? The 6th-8th graders are reading “The War that Saved My Life”. A story about a young girl during WWII.

In Grammar the students are learning about capitalization and commas.

In Math the 4th graders are learning how to add and subtract unlike fractions. The 5th graders are learning about rates and ratios. The 6th graders are learning how to find the area, volume, and surface of different shapes. The 7th graders about volume and surface area. And the 8th graders are learning how to multiply, divide, add, and subtract rational expressions.

In Geography we are learning more about southeast Asia.

In History the upper graders are learning about the Civil Rights Movements. The lower graders are learning about MN history. They are learning more about Modern Minnesota.

In Writing we are writing a demonstration paragraph focusing on sequence and order.
