Good Morning,
With the Easter Holiday fast approaching, I would like to wish all of you a blessed and happy holiday.
Because we all live such busy lives, I am assigning homework which I will complete with the children here at SCHOOL.  Thank you for all that you do.

March 22nd
Hope your weekend was filled with love and laughter.  This week will be dedicated to the Terra Nova testing therefore we will not have any homework or routine assessments.  The testing will be administered in the morning and the afternoons will be filled with fun cowboy activities to celebrate the Wild West theme.  Please remember to send your child in well rested, nourished. ready to work.  I thank you for all your continued support.

Thank you,

Happy St. Patrick's Day
The children looked very festive today.  Also today they enjoyed an ice cream treat.

The following is the schedule for Terra Nova Testing:


       Thursday, 03/19          Practice Test
       Monday, 03/23            Reading
       Wednesday, 03/25      Math
       Thursday, 03/26         Science
       Friday, 03/27              Social Studies
                                           Spelling


Please be sure your children get a good night's sleep and eat a good breakfast.
Also a private reading book would be helpful for the time that they finish early and must wait until the time runs out.  Sharpened pencils (at least three) are an important tool to have for next week.

Good Morning,

We are so tired of this weather, we decided to schedule fun things.  Some of the things are receiving our Reconciliation Book to help prepare us for the sacrament in third grade (fyi: this book will be sent on to third grade in June).  Also cowboy week is fast approaching, the children and I are very excited about the activities.  The schedule will be: Monday, March 23rd - cowboy hats and vests; Tuesday, March 24th - our dance Hoe-down Throw-down;Thursday, March 26th - Lasso the Horse; Math games; Snake in the boot.

Happy Birthday to Maddie! She will be celebrating her 8th birthday on March 26th.

Because I did not list birthdays from September to January, I would love to wish my angels a Happy Birthday.  Kyla Devine - Sept, 29th; Brian Shammo - Oct. 12th; Sebastian McNab - Oct. 17th; Taylor Bailey - Oct. 10th; Evan Eichorn - Oct. 10th.

Keep Tuned:  the children are planning a big surprise for Mother's Day and Father's!!

February 27th
Time is flying by…..Yikes! The children have been busy learning so much math…and they are stretching their brains.  Our reading unit "A Long Journey to Freedom" made us aware of Ruby
Bridges and the sadness of segregation.  We finished Charlotte's Web.  And we learned that size does not matter.  When we apply ourselves we can achieve anything.  In Religion we have opened our hearts to forgiveness.  Even though we hit a few bumps in the road, the children and I discussed the importance of being kind and understanding to each other.  We are looking forward to celebrating Annabelle's birthday - Sunday, March 1st.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

February 17th

Hope everyone is safe and sound with this winter weather.
I am looking forward to returning to school tomorrow.  We will return on Ash Wednesday, and we will attend mass.  All the students will be in their winter uniforms for the mass.  Our class does not have gym tomorrow so we will be good to go.
Be safe driving!
