Tuesday

Students have been reviewing the 5 Steps to a Good Confession and the 3 things you receive with a good confession. Thursday is the 2nd grade retreat. Students may wear jeans and school tennis shoes.
In math, we are finishing up the unit on fractions. Students loved fractions.
In language, the weekly assessments were completed. Students were given 12 spelling words today and will be given 12 words until the end of the year.

Reminder: Friday there will be items to purchase that the 6th graders have made. The money goes to various charities around the Valley. It is called, "The Lent Marketplace".

Tuesday

Today students completed the weekly spelling assessments and language assessment. Please note that words students misspell on any spelling assessments will be written 5 times. Most of the words are words they should be proficient with by now and need to be by the end of the year.
Next week, after the holiday, students will begin having 12 regular spelling words a week along with the bonus word for a grand total of 13 words a week.
In math, students are learning about money.
In religion, we talked about forgiveness. Many students have begun receiving First Reconciliation. Congratulations to those who have received this sacrament!
