Recent Recital

Last weekend the LOCS musical community gathered together to perform in the recital. There was a wide range of musical instruments: violin, acoustic guitar, and the piano. All the grammar school kids were required to play the violin, but for the high school it was an elective. Most of the kids played the violin, but there were two pianists and three guitarists. Every participant in the recital worked very hard to learn their instruments and for many of the students it was their first year to play the violin. The pianists were led by Mrs. Pacetti and the violinists and guitars were led by Ms. Yoder. Everyone did very well and there were very few mistakes made.

New Years Resolutions of LOCS

What is a New Year's Resolution? Well, according to Wikipedia.com, a New Year's Resolution is a commitment that an individual makes to a project or a habit, often a lifestyle change that is generally interpreted as advantageous.

We asked a few Legacy students what their New Year's Resolutions were.
"To do more this summer, and not stay in the house all day." --Melissa L., 8th grade
"To get through the year." --Jonathan S., Junior
"To do better in school." --Selina N., junior
"To make my lunch before work everyday" --Mrs. Pacetti, Journalism teacher

From all of us in the LOCS Journalism class, good luck with your New Year's Resolutions. Here is a tip most may know: It helps to get a friend involved and to keep you on track of your resolution.

The Golden Compass - Flop

The Golden Compass is the story of a young girl who is following her "destiny" and runs into many problems along the way. As expected, the movie received terrible reviews, scoring a 2.8 out of 5. Comments like "Just plain bad", and "The holiday equivalent to a lump of coal," flooded the user review section of Autin360.com. According to the Austin-American Statesman, "The film tried transparently to replicate the cash-box fomula, 'The Lord of the Rings,' but it was so cleary not up to the task." In the eyes of many Christians, the movie was not good because it appeared that it was attempting to bash their religion.

Rockband


EA, Harmonix, and MTV collaborated in order to make a musical simulation game. This type of game was introduced in "Guitar Hero," which only included playing a fake guitar that was plugged into your gaming console. Rockband has added two new instruments: drums and a microphone. The new instruments are expensive but are worth the money in the long run. If you are a social person you can join up with your friends and up to four people can play at the same time. The game is available on the Xbox 360, and the Playstation 2 and 3. The Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions allow online game play and downloadable content, but the Playstation 2 version does not not allow either of these features. With the holidays approaching, this will be a hot item for any future gaming musician.

Finding Your Voice

In the midst of trying to fit in with our peers and trying to get along with everyone, people tend to lose their identities. Although all of us were made in one image --God-- when we look around, there are no two people that look alike. Each person is unique and different in their own special way. Being like everyone else takes away from your personality and special nature.

Our writing styles, art, and dressing manner are all different. Our skin colors, height, and weight, but is it such a big deal that we discriminate? No, being different is the best thing in the world; it sets you apart from everyone else. There are two main types of people: the leaders and the followers. Which do you want to be? Don't be afraid to be different; it is a wonderful thing, for God has given each and everyone of us a gift and we should use it. Be bold and find your own voice, and when you do, don't let it go!

LOCS Volunteers

The LOCS book fair so far has been a big success. The journalism class has shown great character and responsibility concerning volunteering and helping Mrs. Randol out. Although Mrs. Randol is a great organizer, it was a lot of work for one person to do, so the journalism students stepped up. It's nice to know that the students of LOCS will lend a hand when needed.

North Korean Christians arrested; staus unknown.

This news is brought to you by VOM (Voice of the Martyrs), telling us about our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Fellow Northern Kearean Christians, Christians like many of us here at Legacy Oaks, have been said to be missing. In all, there are nine men and women.

Some of you might not know that in North Korea, following Jesus Christ is considered treason. For these missing men and women, it is possible that they have already been executed. We pray they are alive, but it is possible that they have finished their race on earth doing God's Will. I just ask that we as a school and as a family in Christ to pray for our fellow Christians that God help them and their families and friends.

Here are their names to keep in prayers:



Onseong, North Hamgyong Province:

Chul Huh, male
Chun-Il Jang, male
Young-Su Jin, male
Myung-Chul Kim, male
Nam-Suk Kang, male
Young-Yae Lee, female

Hoeryong, North Hamgyong Province:

San-Ho Kang, male


Cheongjin, North Hamgyong Province:

Mi-Hae Park, female
Suk-Chun Suh, male

Legacy Oaks Gives Back









Most kids in Austin, Texas are excited about what they are going to receive for Christmas, but for some kids they spend their Christmas worrying about keeping warm. Legacy Oaks is participating in a drive called Coats for Kids that gives children in the Austin Area coats for winter. The results of the drive were successful. Now, many more kids will be nice 'n toasty this winter.

Legacy is also giving back to SafePlace. SafePlace is an organization that "exists to end sexual and domestic violence through safety, healing, prevention, and social change." Legacy has a Christmas tree in the lobby. But instead of ornaments, the tree is decorated with scarves, mittens, hats, and gloves. The tree is a reminder to all who visit Legacy that we can make a difference in our city, no matter how big or small. SafePlace also has a wish list for their Christmas that includes...

  • Diapers - sizes 4, 5

  • Pull ups - all sizes

  • Children's underwear - all sizes

  • Woman's underwear - all sizes

  • Baby Wipes

  • Body Products - shampoo, conditioner, body wash

  • Body Care - oil, lotion, powder

  • Female hygiene products

  • Bath towels

  • Full sized deodorant

If you do happen to purchase any items for SafePlace you can drop them off at Legacy, and we will take the items to SafePlace. Thank you for your contributions. Merry Christmas!

PreK Today

Among the many students of our school, the youngest are working on some very special projects. They are currently learning songs and getting ready for Carestone as well as the Christmas Program. The students just started both Mandarin and Spanish, and are studying bears and sign language. For Christmas they will be working on mangers made of graham crackers. Their teacher, Mrs. Puryear, said, "They are a wonderful class and are working really hard."


What a smart bunch of students. We look forward to their upcoming projects and achievements.

Legacy Oaks Gives In

Five seconds left in the game, Legacy down by twenty eight points. Buzzzz! Time's up as the Lions' JV team lose their first game of the season, 54 to 26 against the Christian Covenant Wariors on December 4.

This loss for them was not one to be worried about for it was expected, considering they played against a varsity team.

Just as the streak against the Legacy JV team had taken its toll, it seemed all the same for our middle school team as they suffered for the second time in a row a 35+ point loss. These losses can be blamed on the consistent miscommunication between the players.

However, they do see the light, and improvement is present. This improvement has been shown
at the last game on December 17, in which they lost in style with a final score being 49 to 23

Keep up the good work

LSU VS. Ohio State





When LSU lost for the second time in triple overtime against an unranked team, it seemed that the Arkansas Razorbacks were going to end their chances at the National championship . BUT NOT NOW SON! After Mizzouri lost to Oklahoma and West Virginia lost to Pittsburgh, LSU and Ohio State took the no.1 and no.2 spots.


This will be the second consecutive year Ohio state has gone to the National Championship. Last year they went and got beat by the Florida Gators. They will likely make a repeat performance. Ohio state has yet to beat anyone of any importance this season whereas LSU has beaten the likes of Florida and Virginia Tech, both top ten teams at the time.


For all the hype in this game there is one important fact to note. Neither team is undefeated. For the first time in the history of the BCS two non-undefeated teams will play for the National Champioship. Even though ths season has been proof that the BCS should be discarded and a playoff should be made, this years championship game should be one to remember.

Toys to Avoid for Christmas!







This picture may look familiar to some of you, but what you may not know is that this is listed on W.A.T.C.H's [World Against Toys Causing Harm] '10 Worst Toys'. The "Aqua Dots" have been found,when swallowed, the child can slip into a coma state. according the the W.A.T.C.H web site [http://www.toysafety.org/worstToyList_index.html] there have been two reports of kids slipping into this state after swallowing a few of the Aqua Dots.



Here is the complete list of the '10 worst toys':


1) Sticky Stones- can attach to inside of the body if swallowed. Causing intestinal perforation, infection of blockage which can be fatal.




2) Jack Sparrow's Spinning Dagger (Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean) -

This toy has spinning action at a push of a button, but the company has failed to label the warning of serious eye and other impact injuries.


3) Go Diego Go Animal Rescue Boat- The paint on the toy has excessive levels of lead. Exposure to this neurotoxin can have serious long-term effects, particularly for children.



4) Dora the Explorer Lamp- Although the lamp comes with a warning stating the usual "keep out of reach of children to avoid electrical shock and burn injuries," and also extra precaution telling children to UN-plug when the lamp is unattended or if the child is going to bed, there have still been reported injuries.



5) Lil "Giddy Up" Horse: Sassy Pet Sacks- This rocking horse has handles (like on a purse) that allows you to take it with you. The bag has small wooden beads that could cause a choking hazard for young kids. The hourse states that the toy is sold for newborns but the bag says not for children younger than eighteen months.



6) Spider Man 3 New Goblin Sword- This sword can extend 3 feet long in a matter of seconds. This may cause facial injuries and impact injuries.



7) Hip Hoppa- There is a platform on top of a ball that you use to jump on like a pogo stick. This toy can cause head or other impact injuries.



8) B'loonies Party Pack- You are to take a small ball of the plastic substance out of the tubes, put it on the end of the pipe and make all kids of bubble shapes. The plastic substance inside of the tubes have chemicals in them that are dangerous if swallowed. It can also cause burns on the person's skin.



9) My Little Baby Born- This is a soft baby doll for toddlers to enjoy and cuddle. There is a choking hazard for this doll, a pacifier that is attached to the baby's clothing.



10) Rubber Band Shooter- This toy's title explains just what it is: a rubber band shooter. This could be potential for eye injuries.



From all of the Legacy Oaks Journalism Staff we wish you a safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Theater Class

LOCS has added many new electives this year and one happens to be the theater class. The class is led by Mrs. Randol, who is also the school librarian, and it is going well so far.

Recently, the class started a report on the history of theater and each student will write about a different subject. The students will write about the following: costumes, the basic progression of theater throughout the ages, Shakepeare's works, and a few more.

The drama class is also preparing for a day-long presentation: the students have picked a character, researched their character, and will spend one day dressed and acting as the character that they chose. When asked about the class, Jonathan S. and Micah O. said that it was hard.

Drama class will also be reading, as one would guess, dramatically in the Christmas performance. In all, this class is a benefit to the school and is definitely a great addition to the electives at LOCS.

What's Going on in First and Second Grade?

"Deck the halls with Bows of Holly, Fa la la la la la la la la", sings the 1st & 2nd graders as they practice for caroling at the nursing home, Carestone, on December 11th.

In addition to caroling with the Legacy Oaks choir, this season they will also be collecting cans of food and warm clothing such as scarves, gloves, and hats for the homeless and needy people of Austin. But Mrs. Slockett's class isn't stopping there, they are reaching out to children in other countries who are going through hard times and need prayer. The 1st& 2nd graders received a multi-colored bracelet to help them remember to pray for the troubled children.

Keep up the good work!

Book review





Eragon is a great book written by Christoper Paolini when he was only 15. The books are about a young boy that finds a dragon egg. But little does he know that there is a big plan for his destiny. Throughout the book he makes moves that could eventually destroy him in the end. He makes new friends like the Varden, Murtagh, Nasuada, Hrothgar, Orik, Trianna, Elva, Ajihad, The Twins, and Jörmundur. And then some of them turned out to be evil, but you have to read to find out which ones where not with him.



In this book there are a lot of things you have to find out, so do not just read through it with out really understanding it. It really is good to understand the book, and why Paolini chose them. SO, really get into it because it is an excellent book.

---Jonathan S.

Music Review


The band Thousand Foot Krutch (TFK) is a nice Christian alternative to non-Christian bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers or Green Day. The Band is full blown Christian Rock but it gets its roots from Hip-Hop which creates a nice blend of the two styles and makes a pleasant type of music.


If you are interested in looking into this band you might want to purchase their new CD, "The Flame in All of Us." Most of their songs speak of how we need and should want God. They believe in focusing on the hope factor and producing an experience anyone can enjoy.

Here is a link to one of their music videos.

The Upcoming Book Fair

Not only is this to educate you, but maybe you like to read in your spare time. So come to the book fair!

Upper School's Wish List

This week, we asked the Upper School what they would like for Christmas. Needless to say, we received some pretty extravagant and far-fetched answers. Their requests spread from football to clothing, anything goes. Micah O., a die-hard Cowboy fan came up with a considerably predictable answer, "The Dallas Cowboys Franchise." Another football related request came from Jonathan S., who said he wanted a "Green Bay Packers Away Jersey," apparently, the home jersey is less desirable.

Brock B. came up with a pretty unique request; however, "$2,000 worth of clothing and shoes." Surprisingly, Brock was perfectly fine with his answer being published. As predicted, the iPod is still the #1 request throughout all of the Upper School; it's even rumored that confiscated iPods are our teacher's #1 request. Overall, our students are very excited about our upcoming Christmas break and cannot wait until those special "sleep-in 'til eleven o' clock" mornings.

The Christmas Store

The Legacy Oaks economics class is going to host the Christmas store this year. They will have toys, houseware items, and tools. They bought everything already; however, they need donations: wrapping paper and volunteers to help wrap gifts. Wrapping your purchases will not cost extra.

The store will be open on the 19Th and the 20Th. There will be a preview of the store on the 18Th. The items will range from 1 to 10 dollars and there will be no tax. (What a bargain!)

---Micah O. Jonathan S.

4th Grade - What's going on?

The fourth grade is up to a lot this season. Recently, Matt B. and Avery F. interviewed the fourth grade about what's been going on in their classroom. Last week, they all worked together to dye cloth only using berries. They were all very excited about this project and had a ton of fun. Recently, the fourth grade has switched teachers. After interviewing them, Avery found that they all like Mrs. Brown and enjoy her up-beat teaching. Later Avery asked them what their favorite subject was and why. Joshua M. said his favorite subject was math; he added that is was easy and fun. Reading is Caroline G.'s favorite subject. She said that reading could take you anywhere, or allow you to be anyone you wanted to be. From what we heard, the fourth grade is having a lot of fun and experiencing an eventful holiday season.

Matt B., Avery F.

Third Grade Looks Bright

There are many new faces at Legacy Oaks this year. One of those wonderful new faces is Mrs. Brooks. Mrs. Brooks teaches third grade this year. Mrs. Brooks teaches nine students and this is her first year teaching at Legacy Oaks, although she has been a teacher for a long time. Mrs. Brooks says that the best part of her job is the kids.

For the 3rd grade's holiday activities, they made butter, and Iroquoian long houses. A good incentive Mrs. Brooks thought of is the Marble Jar. To receive marble's the children have to have good behavior. For each good deed a student does, they get to put one marble in the jar. When the Marble Jar is filled about halfway they receive a party.

Mrs. Brooks commented on how the class was not doing to well in math at the beginning of the year, but recently they have started to really enjoy it and make better grades. Mrs. Brooks' goal for the year is to have as much fun as possible.

In conclusion, the third grade's year is likely to be fun filled and very educational.

The K5 Kool Kids


The Legacy Oaks K5 class is rockin' and rollin' as they learn how to read. Ms. Larson's goal for the K5 class is to get them reading at a first grade level. That has to be tough, but if there is any K5 class that can get it done, it is this one. Some of the kids are even reading stories to Ms. Larson.

Reading is not the only thing the K5 Kool Kids will be learning. Next on the agenda is the Arctic and it is going to be awesome. Polar bears, lemmings, and wolves, oh my! That will be a treat.


Work isn't the only thing the K5 Kool Kids are doing. They have been going on several field trips to a lot of "kool" places. They went to H.E.B. where they got free food. They also went to the pumpkin patch (which was their favorite) and the Austin Duck Tours. Later on in the year, the librarian Mrs. Randol wants to take them to the tree farm.

5th - 6th grade

The 5th-6th grade class is currently working on some projects for Thanksgiving. According to Ms . R ., the 5th-6th grade teacher, on November 20, 2007, their class is going to watch a movie, William Bradford and the First Thanksgiving. Also, they will be participating in a few activities that are about the video. Additionally, the class is going to throw a Thanksgiving party.

Over the Christmas season they are going to have many activities, including the following: a Christmas party, Christmas ornaments, and a “Secret Santa.”

Ms. R. has recently joined the LOCS staff. In an interview with her,she said that it was a challenging transition but the kids are great. We asked her if she had any more fun activities planned with the class and she told us she would like to plan more field trips in the future.

Student Organized Social: BIG SUCCESS!

Most students are sad about the end of summer, but Legacy Oaks Christian School is happy to say Goodbye, Summer; Hello, Fall. On Friday, November 2nd, LOCS Student Leaders hosted a Goodbye, Summer; Hello, Fall social for the upper school students. It was a fun filled afternoon with games including bubblegum pie, seed spitting, shaving the balloon, water balloons, and a shaving cream fight. Afterwards students enjoyed a barbecue dinner provided by Miss Yoder.


We interviewed some of the students and Miss Yoder. Miss Yoder said, " Yes, I think it went very well. The students that were there, I think, had fun. It was a lot of work but a lot of fun."


Another student, junior Liny commented, "It was fun, but there should have been more people. The games were good and they were creative. The shaving cream fight was insane in a good way, but the water balloons should have been real water balloons. The student leaders did a great job."


Sophomore Micah O. said, "It was fun." Sophomore Brock B. said, "It was cool. I think it should have been organized better, and there should have been towels."
Junior high students Avery F. and Melissa L. said, "I think there could have been more people [but] I think it was fun", and "It was really fun and messy."


Overall, everyone had a good time and the afternoon went smoothly.

Door Closes on Lady Lion's Winning Season

Great players make for a great season for the Legacy Oaks volleyball team, as they have gone for 6 wins and 3 losses. The Lady Lions have already beaten San Marcos Baptist Academy, Not Your Ordinary School (NYOS), two home school teams known as the Stars and the Cougars , Christian Covenant, and Austin City School. Even though the Lady Lions beat the Stars in a scrimmage once, the second and third time they played, the Lions were beat.


All in all, the Legacy Oaks volleyball team did amazingly well this season, and they hope to continue this dominance with next year's co-ed team. But with the season coming to a end some tears are heard crying out.

Upcoming Music Recital







This December, many LOCS students will be participating in the Christmas music recital. The musicians will be playing a smaller version of "The Messiah", by George Handel. The 7-12 graders will each have a specific part in the recital; a few of the instruments will include the piano and the violin. Miss Yoder and Mrs. Pacetti's students will be performing in the recital on December 15, at the Carestone Nursing home.

After interviewing two participants of the recital, Sam B. and Alex G., we found that they are very excited and have been preparing for a few weeks. Alex G. said, "I have been in a recital, and I like the fact that everyone will be playing together and the audience will be there." Sam added that he was slightly nervous, but overall, he is looking forward to the recital. According to previous performances, the recital is predicted to turn out very well.

The Bells and Whistles of Tinkertoys

This month we will be covering all the bells and whistles of Mrs. Jasper's Tinkertoys class. This will include the class' ongoing Rube Goldberg project and its processes. Interviews and photos will also be featured.

Rube Goldberg was an inventor, cartoonist and sculptor; he had a degree in engineering. His cartoon drawing eventually evolved into his invention ideas -- machines and contraptions which are still evolving and progressing to this day.


Mrs. Jasper's Tinkertoys class is currently working on a project of this sort. The project includes ten steps to raise a flag. In an interview with Mrs. Jasper she said,


"[Tinkertoys] is really about basic physics. We have explored simple machines, electricity, and flight... We are currently doing the Rube Goldberg -- ten steps to raise a flag." Mrs. Jasper also said that the project will be finished this month. The upcoming project remains a mystery.


Students such as senior Kat B. had shared their opinions about the project. "It's a long daunting task, " she said. "It's very interactive and fun. There is a light at the end of the tunnel."

Sam B. from the group called "Fantastic Four" told us, "It's long. You have to be creative."

Richard N. from the "Three Musketeers" group told us that it's difficult to raise the flag using different steps. Jacob M. revealed that pre-trials will be held Thursday, November 15, and actual trials will be held the next Thursday. Overall, although it is a time consuming task the benefits and experience seem worth it.

Tune in next month to get the scoop on Tinkertoys.

What's Happening in the Grammar School?

Our teachers in Pre-K are really great in their way to get the four year old children on task. The students are learning sign language, art, music, Spanish and most of all how to have fun.

Grammar school grades include K4-6th grade. Some of the classes special classes their students take are Spanish, Mandarin, Latin.

More to come about Grammar School. For more information, check out this page: Legacy Oaks .org

Halo



The Halo games started in 1999 and ended in 2007. For those who do not know, Halo is an RPG (role playing game). This is what one would call a first person shooter. The game was created by Bungie and sponsored by Microsoft.


The first Halo game came out in 2000 and it received game of the year in 2002. Halo was then followed by 2 sequels, Halo 2 and Halo 3.


Halo 2 was released in the summer of 2004. It sold over 30 thousand copies in the first day alone.


Halo 3 was released in September this year. It made over $300 million dollars in the first week. In some cities, the lines to get in the stores that were selling Halo 3 at midnight were multiple blocks long.

Bungie is the company that started the Halo legacy; it has been sponsored by Microsoft ever since the Halo was made. But now Bungie has decided to split from Microsoft in order to develop as a company on its own. Although Bungie has split from Microsoft, the games that they are currently working on will still be available for Microsoft's X-box 360.

Some of the students here at L.O.C.S have played all the three Halos and we interviewed them. Brock B. states that,"It is an awesome multi-player shooting game." He went on to say, "On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 9 because of the intense action..." We also interviewed Matt B., a 9th grader from LOCS, who said, "I thought the games were really good because of the good multi player and campaign."


Although the games have received great ratings, all three of the games have a "Mature" rating, meaning one must be 17 to buy it and there is a lot of blood and violence. Needless to say, many parents will not buy their children any of the three Halos.


Aside from the concerned parents of children, nothing is holding the Halo series from becoming one of the most profitable game series ever.

Our Virtual Debut

Many of the students at Legacy Oaks are tech savvy, and the journalism class isn't an exception. We've heard the buzz about blogs, and, well...voila! We give you The Legacy Chronicle. Here we are, on the web, with our very own blog. We hope to faithfully keep up with writing entries and holding your interest as we report on school and community news. Don't worry -- we also plan on including lots of fun bits, too ;)

Stay tuned...there's more to come in the very near future!
