HAPPY CATHOLIC SCHOOLS WEEK!
Science- This week we will begin our discussion of the endocrine system. The text book will not be used for the unit. I have not set a test date yet, but it will cover the whole packet as this is a fairly short unit. Homework each night is to review everything in the packet that has been done.
Religion- This week we will continue our discussion of the parts of the mass in Chapter 10- We Receive Holy Communion. We will also do an activity to celebrate Catholic Schools Week and create Valentine cards to send to the Veteran's retirement homes. We did this at Veteran's Day and had a great response from the facilities to which we mailed our cards.
Homeroom FYI:
On Friday we will celebrate class mass at 8:45 a.m. Parents are invited to attend.
Valentine's Day cards: I will allow time on Valentine's Day for the children to exchange cards. I ask that they bring one for each student in class (30) and that they only sign their name on the cards. It takes too long to hand out if cards are addressed to each student. If your child prefers to bring candy, that is fine, too. Just remember NO NUTS ALLOWED. Please let me know if you have any questions.

December
Science-
We are now working on the circulation packet. This packet will be split into two tests. The first test on sections 1 and 2 will be given on Friday, December 9. The second test on sections 3 and 4 will be given on Thursday, December 15. Homework each night is to study work that has been checked in the packet.
Everyone had a great time making edible cells. I will post a few pictures soon.
Religion-
We will study about Advent and Christmas and do different activities on each.
The purple folders are falling apart so I have asked all students to bring a binder for Religion
by December 16th. This binder may be 1/2 or 1 inch. I prefer a clear pocket on the front,
but if you already have one that doesn't have that it is fine.
Coming up-
December 8- All School Mass
December 15- Reconciliation for Register and Jones
December 16- Christmas party 1:00-1:45

Science-
Test on Cell packet Wednesday. We always end this unit with an edible cell project. My plans were to do this on Thursday. I just can't find it in me to "sugar" them up and send them off to take a Math test and Social Studies. Therefore, on Thursday they will get with their group and plan their shopping list. Each group member will be responsible for a few items to share so everyone doesn't have to purchase all of the materials. Shopping can be done over the holiday and we will do the project on the Wednesday after the holidays.
Religion-
This week we will work on Grandparent's Day gifts and a Thanksgiving craft for the family.
I hope everyone has a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving break. I am most thankful this year to have such wonderful children to work with each day. =)
