Dear Parents,
International Night was fun. It was good to see a lot of the parents there. I hope you enjoyed yourself. We have been talking in Religion about First Communion and the proper way to receive Jesus. Keep reminding your child that the Sacrament of Communion is an important part in their Catholic faith. Please explain that each time they receive Communion they grow closer to Jesus and with one another.
This Friday, February 26th there is a Chapter 7 Math test. Chapter 7 is on Time and Money. I will be sending home some math papers, just like I did for Chapter 6. Use the math papers as study sheets.
Conferences will be in 3 weeks. During Conference Week there will be a Book Fair at the library. Always lots of good books to purchase.
The Second Grade will be presenting the Stations of the Cross on March 12th. If you can make it we would like to see you there. We will be going back to Cherish on March 9th. I will be contacting parents again.
During this time of Lent I have been reminding the children that we need to be more like Jesus. Lent is not always about giving something up. Lent is also a time of doing good deeds, sharing, helping, forgiving, making peace, cooperating, and listening well. Lent is a growing season. Growing closer to Jesus.
Have a wonderful week.
