Notices about Mid terms
Dear Parents,
MOST fourth grade students did not do their Religion homework assigned last Thursday. Their reason was that they were busy studying for their Math Exam. Although Tuesdays and Thursday are my scheduled days for asigning homework, I told the class that I would give them until Tuesday to complete it. If Thursday's homework is not given in by next Tuesday, I will be entering 0 for this assignment. The Religion Archdiocesan Exam is scheduled for Thursday and this is an important assignment that should be done and reviewed well to prepare for the exam, so no excuses or late asignments will be accepted.
Below are the notes on holy days of obligation some students did not have a chance to finish on Friday. Please have them copy neatly into their Religion notebook:
Aim: To
learn the dates of the holy days of obligation
