We are
studying about the Ephiphany. We are working on
the Act of Hope in preparation for a test next Monday. Mark your
calendar for the first week in March when the children will be
assisting with Mass and doing the prayers over the intercom. Some
of the children will be taking home readings to practice at the
end of February. We will be fortunate to sing in the choir
the following week and another week a bit later. |
 Reading/ and L.A.
We are
reading Mr.
Popper's
Penguins and are
beginning our second reader.The first story is
an amusing one called "The Terrible Eek". Your child needs to be
thinking about a
snowman story. We'll start one in class and finish it
class.Some of it will be homework. Check in "January" on
the website for detailed requirements for the story. We will put these
in our permanent writing portfolio. The spelling packet is coming
home. We will have a "weighty word for
extra credit. The word and definition will be in your child's
planner. Tests will only be given in weeks with three or more days. |
 
Math This week we are study
graphs, grids, mean, median and mode. We will take a test on the 7
times tables next Tuesday.

We are
beginning our study of weather for the next few
weeks. Your child has a choice of assessmenets. Each may do the
project under "Our Classroom", then under Science or take the test on
weather. |

We will
complete our study of pioneers, colonies and
our country's independence. Look for a study guide to
go home in your child's red folder. |
 I hope you like the News online.
It has been one year this week since I began it! It saves a
lot a
paper. It is designed to give you up- to-date information for
you and your child. Parents have given me positive feedback.
Remember, I am always open to your suggestions! Direct them to me since
it is my site. and not affiliateed with the school. It has been
made with love on my own time and with my funds......You have
been very encouraging. Thank you for sharing your comments!
