Welcome!!!

Welcome to Mrs. Stielstra and Mrs. Wyma's 3rd grade class!

It was such a pleasure to meet so many of you last night. We appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedules to come to school and make your child feel more comfortable for the first day.  Our classroom is ready to go....all we are missing now are our students!

Our theme this year is "Love Does".  Author Bob Goff wrote the inspiring book "Love Does".  As a class we will be exploring different ways in which we show love to others in our classroom, home, community, and beyond.  The theme is based from John 13:17 which says, "Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them."  What an awesome reminder to treat everyone in our classroom with Christlike love and find ways to demonstrate this love everyday!

We are looking forward to a great start on Monday.  Our first day back to school is a full day.  The school day runs from 8:10 (first bell) to 3:15.  Please have your child bring their school supplies with them if they did not bring them last night.  It looks like it is going to be a HOT day (finally!!!), so dress your child comfortably.  

We will be communicating with you this year through our class blog.  Here you will find curriculum highlights from the week in the "classroom newsletter tab", pictures of your child in school, and upcoming events.  Please take the time to subscribe to our blog so you are notified each time we update it with important information.

A few upcoming dates:
August 24th- Convocation at 3p.m. at the HCHS Auditorium
August 25th-  First day of School
August 27th-  Meet the teacher night
August 29-Sept. 1- No school  Labor day Recess
Sept. 2-  Meet the Superintendent, at Pine Ridge from 3:10-4:00
Sept. 19  Picture Day

Each of your children are already so precious to us and we are holding them up in prayer as we begin this new school year.  We look forward to partnering with you as we go forward.  Always feel free to contact us with any questions or comments you may have.

Blessings,

Lynae Stielstra and Erin Wyma
