Letter to Parents 12/1 -- 12/5
Dear Parents,
Welcome back! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Please note that I will not be assigning pages in order, especially in Religion. I will be
skipping around as is necessary to cover the topics of sacrament of Reconciliation and
the church season of Advent. It is important that you follow my schedule DAILY so
that children don't do their homework without understanding. Homework should reinforce
what I have taught in class. To do the homework ahead of time or the week's work all
in one night does not benefit your child.
For the beginning of this week, I will be posting only the day's work to await any
upcoming changes. Social Studies and Religion (scroll down) for 12/1 is posted for all
classes. Ms. Saville
