Catholic School's Week
This will be a very flexible week because of all the activities planned for the week. A copy of the week's events was sent home in your family envelope. Buddy Day is Tuesday: they will eat lunch with their buddy---and a small gift or candy is exchanged. It is also Blue and White Spirit Day----this does not mean yellow, green, any shade of blue, etc... Spirit day means OLM (blue and white) Please check planners----the assignments may be added to, or taken away---depending on activities Upcoming: Science Test---2/1 Book project: 2/1 (please do NOT do this project for your child---you may give them what they need---but they are to do this --- many of you want them to get a good grade---which as a parent I can understand---but by 5th grade they should be doing projects independently with only your guidance.)

Time got away from me. Math has been spiral handouts for review of what was learned before Christmas. Soc. Studies started a new unit---we are starting to learn the events leading up to the American Revolution. Reading continues with stories from the book and skills handouts. English begins a poetry unit. Science begins a weather unit---I have ordered a weather station so the students will be able to check the temperature, wind direction, speed, rain, etc.
It is supposed to arrive Friday-so that will start next week. I would like them to watch the weather report each evening to really see how our weather pattern moves eastward and affects the entire U.S. I have given out a new book report form. I have gone over it with them---and handed out the directions. Please look at it. They are using a shoebox to make a 3-D Diorama to make the setting from the story.
