Cubs today

Hi parents,   Lots of homework this week!  We've been working on our Faith in God requirements for the religious knot in Cubs over the past few weeks.  Today all of the boys wrote letters to a leader, teacher or family member who they respect and are thankful for. When those letters get delivered the boys can mark that off in their Faith in God booklets.    Based on things we've done the previous two den meetings, all the boys should be prepared to both teach a family home evening lesson about Joseph Smith's first vision as well as tell a story from the Book of Mormon that teaches about Faith in Christ. I've attached the Faith in God religious knot requrements to this email, so you can double check the requirements.  As parents it is your job to follow through with this.    All the boys were also given a four generations sheet on which to write down the names of their parents and grandparents  This will help them complete a 4th Faith in God requirement and help them towards the Heritage beltloop as well.  It is not necessary to fill it out through the 4th generation.  Parents and grandparents is sufficient for the requirement. If they bring that information with them to cubs next time, we can do the rest of the requirement with them at den mtg.   Today Bears drew posters depicting the water cycle.  They also made weather stations.  If they will set up those stations and record their observations for a week AND if they will watch a local weather forecast (watch the one on weather.com at any time of day) then they will have completed the Weather Beltloop requirements.  Email me and Bree when your boys complete their assignments: lynnange@bellsouth.net and augustina76@yahoo.com   Whew! That seems like a lot. Please follow through with your boys so they can get credit for the hard work they've done so far.   Looking forward to Joseph Bassett joining the Bears next week.  Happy birthday Joseph! (turning 8 on the 12th)  We meet at 4:15 on Tuesdays.   Make sure you check out the pack blog at http//pack731.blogspot.com/   Angeline Christensen
