Homework for 2nd, 3rd, & 4th Grades 11/14 to 11/18

Dear Parents,
         I wish to thank all parents for your cooperation in helping your children prepare for the Religion Fair this year. Grades for their work have been recorded.
         Last week I sent home to all students of all grades a card with the new Mass prayers and  responses.  All students in grades 2 and 3 are responsible for memorizing the Apostles' Creed on this card and grade 4 is responsible for the Nicene Creed.  All grades will also need to know the definitions of the terms used in these prayers which will be listed in their Religion notebooks.  Questions on these prayers will be on the next Unit test in the week of Dec. 12th. It is advisable that students make copies of both sides of this card and keep one in their Religion folder in case original is lost.
        The vocabulary defiinitions for this week were listed on last week's homework blog and are listed again below for your convenience:

*moral - able to distinguish between right and wrong ; having good conduct

*grace - gift of God's life in us

*free will - God's gift which allows us to make choices

*sin - a wrong thought, word, or action that we freely choose to commit
