Notices for April 12 to 16

 Dear Parents,

           Welcome back!  I hope you all had an enjoyable Easter break!  If you checked the April calendar posted on the school blog recently, you will see that on Friday, April 23 students will be dismissed at 12:00 so that zoom Parent-Teacher Conferences can be held from 1:00 to 5:45 pm. I will be setting up a schedule like I did previously with about a 15 minute slot for each parent.  Report cards will be sent next week for remote learners.

            There are no quizzes planned for this week except for our weekly Spelling quiz on sight words on Friday.  We will begin Module 5 in Math on Monday to learn all about recognizing two and three dimensional shapes and then work on telling time.  

           Lunch time has now been changed from 11:30 to 12:30 so some minor adjustments to our daily schedule will need to be made.

            See you soon!                                                                                           Ms. Saville

         There will a SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) zoom class for all students at 2:15 this Tues. so remote learners should use the link provided at that time to log in and stay until you are admitted by the teacher. This Wed. I will not be meeting with the coach so no conference time needed this week.  Wed. is also National Chocolate Covered Raisins Day.  On Thurs. we will celebrate Mass in church at 9:00 for Feast of the Annunciation.  

           Test schedule this week is as follows: Tues.- Religion Quiz; Wed.-Grammar Quiz; Thurs.-Vocabulary Quiz on Goods and Services; Fri.- Selection Test on Goods and Services and weekly Spelling Quiz.  Please see daily homework on google classroom for details.

           All students need to bring a strong fabric bag by Thurs. to pack up all books in cabinets for the Easter break. Our Easter break is from March 26 to April 12. As directed by Mr. Woods,  NO homework wil be assigned for the Easter break so that we can all enjoy a well deserved break. Report cards will be distributed in April.

             A reminder that student recess time now is only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:45 to 10:30. If at any time a student needs to log on remotely to class for the day please check your child's email for our  meeting ID and password.  I have sent the info again to all in-class learners.       Thank you.
