A Great Place to Grow

We are celebrating Lutheran Schools Week starting on Monday and it is a time for us to be sincerely thankful for the great school that we have. In this week's blog, tell about the things you like best about FIL. The ideas could range from our solid Biblical foundation, to a specific class, to a sport, to your friends and the people here, to a certain activity, and many more. Be specific about what you like and why you like it!

What Do You Want On Your Tombstone?

What Do You Want on Your Tombstone? The above phrase is a clever marketing tool for Tombstone Pizzas. However, it is a good question to ask yourself as well. Someday, when you die and are called to eternal life in Heaven, what do you want your tombstone to say? You can select one word and explain why that word would be on your tombstone, or you maybe could choose a favorite quote or Bible passage and explain why you would have that. If neither of those ideas seem appealing, you can write an entire paragraph that you would want printed on your tombstone. So, tell us, WHAT DO YOU WANT ON YOUR TOMBSTONE?

Extreme Makeover

Congratulations! Your family was just chosen for Extreme Makeover, Home Edition 2008! The host of the show, Ty Pennington, wants to help you design your dream bedroom. Write a thorough description of what your room would look like. Ideas to think about are: paint colors, size, what is your bed going to be like, would you have your own bathroom, would there be a theme to your room, what kinds of accessories would you like? Give lots of details so Ty can make it just how you'd like it! Good luck!

(thanks for the great blog idea, Noah!)

Favorite Book Ever

Think back to one of the best books you have ever read. It could have been as recent as last week or as far back as from when you were 3 years old. Tell about the book below and what you liked about it.

Reincarnation

In Social Studies, we have been talking about other world religions (Buddhism and Hinduism). Since they believe in reincarnation (and we obviously do not), I want you to put yourselves in their shoes. If you were to be reincarnated tomorrow, what would you come back as? You could be a human, animal, or a plant. You could be from the United States, Germany, Honduras, China, Russia, Kenya, or wherever you want. You could be of any nationality you choose. Just pick something to come back as and tell us why.
