What a great week of celebrating the gifts of Catholic Education! The students topped of the week this morning celebrating Mass and shining in front of the whole school. I will post more photos of the week on Seesaw. Thank you for helping your children produce some of the most amazing book report commercials I’ve seen! Have a wonderful weekend and please don’t forget to invite your friends to our Open House on Sunday from 11:30-1:30.





Academics
Literacy -This week students finished their “I have a dream” paragraphs, read about the topic of heredity in a new program called Readworks, and also spent a whole “day” enjoying a read-in celebrating their met reading goal.
Math -We continue to work on understanding the concept of division. We will wrap up the unit with a short assessment on Monday and then will dive into memorizing division facts next week. We will also get back to the X routine of practicing facts for those still mastering multiplication. KEEP PRACTICING!
Social Studies -Students hit the polls after registering to vote, and selected our class president, Ms, Keira Patelli. Congratulations to all three candidates who worked so hard and truly exhibited amazing leadership through the whole experience.
ESPAÑOL, 3rd -We practiced the days of the week, numbers, colors and animals, through the use of a calendar.
Art – Students explored creating small penguins, designing each one to fit their available space. This activity also gave us a chance to discuss proportions and how they affect our artwork.
PE -This week in PE we played an invasion game called Capture the Flag. The students worked on teamwork, strategy, chasing, and fleeing. Next week we will start our jump rope unit for the 3rd and 4th graders and volleyball for the 5th graders.
