Notices for Week of Feb. 8 to 12

 Dear Parents,

           There will be only three days of school this week since we are off Feb. 11, 12 , and 15.  On Wed.  we will be having Mass to celebrate Ash Wednesday, which is the beginning of the Lenten Church season.  This year ashes will be distibuted in a different way to avoid direct contact. Students will be begin learning about our traditional Lenten practices this week and continue until Easter.  

             In ELA the Unit 2 Reading test will be given and then I will be presenting the new trade book for Unit 3 Module A.  In Math we are starting Module 4 on place value which leads into learning about counting coins.  In Social Studies we will review what we studied about Washington, Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr.  and the quiz will be given on Tuesday. 

           Are you wondering about our National What??? Day for this week.  There are two: National Pizza Day on Tuesday and National Umbrella Day on Wenesday!

           During their days off, I suggest that students work on Edgenuity for about 20 minutes periods just to keep their minds sharp. As always, homework assignments will be posted on google classroom daily. Enjoy the time off  and keep warm in the cold spell ahead.

 Dear Parents,

UPDATE, as you probably already know, we have another snow day, so school resumes on Wed. Hope you are enjoying another  BEAUTIFUL snowy day!  This week we are celebrating a short but important Catholic School Week. Students will be composing sentences and creating illustrations on the themes of faith, excellence, and service.  We will also be working on our February Values Theme based on how we as a school community have provided services for those in need.  We wil be starting Module 4 in Math on FRIDAY . Using discoveryeducation we will begin learning about community laws and how students can practice citizenship. Students will also be studying facts about the life of Martin Luther King Jr. in honor of Black History Month.  The Social Studies quiz on comparing Washington and Lincoln is rescheduled for next week in honor of President's Day on Feb. 15.

      Due to the TWO snow days, I made another small revision to our weekly test schedule.   The Reading quiz on Going to School will be on Wed. The Math quiz on measuring  and Writing test on Going to School will be on Thurs. Our Grammar quiz on contractions will be on Friday.  

         Although the feast of St. Blaise is on  Feb. 3, we will NOT be  having the blessing of the throats service this year.  Report cards for remote learners are scheduled to be sent out on Thurs. and will be distributed to in-class learners on Friday.  A reminder that dismissal on Friday is at 12:00 for students so that Parent-Teacher Conferences can begin at 1:00.  The  zoom schedule for parents  will be set up today and the invitation will be sent later this week.
