Pennies for Patients
During the entire month of February Queens Lutheran School will be participating in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) School and Youth Program, Pennies for Patients. The students will collect spare change to support LLS's mission: to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma and to improve the quality of life for patients and their families.
There's a collection box in every classroom where the children drop in their change and knowing this program will raise funds to lifesaving treatments and cures for blood cancer patients. This a special chance for your child to have a big impact on others.

Wow! The holidays are over and were back to serious work.
We have been talking about heroes, people who make life better for others.
Second graders read books about famous inventors and did reports. They're on the wall outside our room. There are many kinds of heroes. Dr. King helped get unfair laws changed. We all completed portraits of Dr. King, which are on display on our wall of heroes.
The New Year gave us a time to think about how we each wish to improve ourselves. New Year resolutions range from I resolve to eat more healthy food; I resolve not hit my sisters to I resolve to be good. All noble efforts will be applauded. Chinese New Year is coming soon-its the Year of the Dragon!
We were sad to hear that Mrs. Raspantini broke her ankle. We made cards to cheer her up and said a prayer for healing. We are excited about meeting and working with Miss Castro.
Were working on a mural Winter Wonderland. Snowmen, sleds, ice skates, hockey, etc. will soon adorn our wall.

From the desk of Ms Costanzo..
Happy New Year. I hope all of you had a restful Christmas.
3rd and 4th graders are on their way to mastering their multiplication facts while the 4th graders are displaying data on charts and graphs.
We have been using our projector for many group lessons and class discussions. In Social Studies we are learning all about New York and we are now doing our own research about places in our great state. All the students are very excited.
5th and 6th graders are really having a great time in Science class. We became meteorologists and presented our own weather reports. Our presentations were videotaped and we watched ourselves on the Smart Board.
The children are excited about learning and that makes me excited about teaching.
If you have time, please stop by and see all the wonderful things your son/daughter is doing while at school. There are reports on display on the wall outside and inside the classroom.
