BON DIA
WEEK 23

Dear Families,
Hoping everyone had a nice relaxing mini break.  I see that some students have been kissed by the sun!  Very fun!!

I will not be in school this Thursday or next Monday and Tuesday.  I have to go to Spokane.  Mrs. Weber will be here of me on Thursday and her mother, Mrs. Kopf will be here for me next Monday and Tuesday.  Some of you may know Mrs. Kofp, and those who don't she worked at St. Alphonsus for many years and is FABULOUS!!  The students will enjoy her!

 

HOMEWORK:

1). Read each night and log your reading on the reading log sheet.  Make sure you are getting your parents signature.  Many students are not filling in their reading logs!  STILL!!

2). Studies Weekly #11 Lewis and Clark. Wkst and crossword

3). Spelling Unit 23 this week, all 4 pages! (Not MSL students)

Work is due on Friday the 22^nd!

*There will be an SLE quiz on all of the Religion SLE's this Thursday.  Miss Julie will also teach a lent lesson to the 4th graders.

*Fourth grade math continues to work with fractions.  This week we will be adding Fractions with like denominators.

*In Social Studies we are reading about Lewis and Clark and their expedition from St. Lewis out west in 1804.  You will see the students bringing home or working on comprehension questions in their Journals.  I am copying all of the pages of the book a few chapters at a time so that you all don't have to hunt down the book.  Those students who were on vacation longer than the two days will need to catch up.  We are now on Chapter 5.  The nice thing is that they are short chapters.  Our next writing assignment will be to write front page news articles about their exploration.  I will introduce this to the students in the next week of so.

Have a great week, its wonderful to see the sun!  Miz Schmutz

Dear Parents,

Valentines Day is on Thursday.  We will have a little party in the afternoon.  A movie and cupcakes.  I sent home tonight a copy of all the students names in both 3/4 Classes.  I told the students that they do not have to make Valentines for the 3/4 East class.  But if they do decide to make Valentines for our class I ask that they make one for every student.

We will be having mass on Wednesday instead for Tuesday for Ash Wednesday at 9am.

The students did a great job on their Native American projects!  WAY TO GO!!!

Many students are going on Vacation.  Please let me know again if you will need work.  I've done my best to plan for the next two weeks.

Week 21

February 4-8, 2013

Dear Parents,

I want to apologize for no Newsletter last week.  I was sick and when I came back, frankly I had forgotten.  This week we finished all of the Native American Projects, and they were fabulous.  We have them on display now in the school.  Fill free to stop in to the Commons or up on the 2nd floor hall.

*Friday the 15th and Monday the 18th are NO SCHOOL DAYS!  Many of you have notified me that your student will be gone.  It is stated in the school hand book that the teachers are responsible for getting all work your student has missed upon their return.  I usually do my best to get the work ahead of time, but it does require extra planning on the teachers part, and from my 10 years of experience in doing so, the work usually does not come back after the vacation completed.  For those of you who are going on vacation I will do my best to to get your student the basics.  Anything I am not able to print or plan ahead for the next two weeks they can make up upon their return.

4th grade Religion students have an SLE #3 quiz today.  This has been something we have been working on and talking about for a week.  They all knew this was coming. 

-we will begin to learn about the last SLE next week and the quiz for that one will be on Thursday the 14th V-Day!!

4th grade Math, we have started the Fractions Unit.  This week we are working on Equivalent Fractions, it can be a difficult concept to grasp, so we will be working on it all week.

We will finish up with Native Americans this week in SS and move on to the Oregon Trail.

In Science the students will be researching Planets with Mrs. Weber in class.

HOMEWORK:

1). Read each night and log your reading on the reading log sheet.  Make sure you are getting your parents signature.  Many students are not filling in their reading logs!  STILL!!

2). TFK – The Race to Save the Cheetahs

3). Spelling Unit 21 this week, all 4 pages! (Not MSL students)

*All work is due on Friday, Feb. 8^th.

Have a great week :)
