Weeks of 2/1/10-2/8/10

Hello Parents/Guardians!

This week will be filled with fun and exciting events!  It is Catholic Schools Week, and we will have daily activities/events each day this week.  Monday is Pajama Day.  Students may also bring a pillow and blanket today so they can comfortably read during our designated D.E.A.R. time.  Our lunch will be later today, so students are welcome to bring a snack.  Tuesday is twin/triplet dress down day.  Students may partner up with one or more student(s) from the school and dress the same.  We will also be acknowledging the accomplishment of our basketball and soccer teams with a pep rally in Schwinn Hall today.  On Wednesday, families are welcome to visit classrooms between 9:00 am and 11:45 am.  Our class has lunch from 11:00-11:45, so you are welcome to eat with your child as well.  Thursday, we will have our school olympics in Schwinn Hall during the afternoon.  Students should wear their gym uniforms.  Friday we will have an all school mass in the morning followed by an awards ceremony in the basement.  One Peacemaker and one Effort Award will be given to two students from each class.  We will also be acknowledging the honor roll students from the junior high.  Families are welcome to attend the awards ceremony.

There will be a math test over chapter 5 on Tuesday this week.  There will also be a quiz over chapters 5-8 in Because of Winn Dixie on Monday.  Students should practice their 4s facts in multiplication this week.  They will have a timed test on Friday.

Next week, I will be gone on Monday, and there will be a substitute.  Students will have an English test on Tuesday this week over chapter 4 (Adjectives and Adverbs).  They will also have a Science test on Thursday over chapter C3 (The Solar System).

Parents, please make sure you go through all returned assignments in the Friday folders each weekend with your child.  This is a good way for you and your child to see where they may be struggling or excelling.  

Sincerely,
Miss Jones
