April 28- May 2

Welcome back to a full week :). Hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing time with their families. It was well deserved. My students have really been working hard.  We have several weeks of school and there is still so much to learn. So here we go!!!

We will be practicing for the May Crowning Prayer Service.  It will be on Friday, May 2 which is also Grandparent's Day. Some of the students have taken readings to practice. Please make sure they practice all week at home, and we will practice at school.  Thank you. Each child will be participating in the crowning event . They will each present a rose to the Blessed Mother during the service.  They also will be singing and doing sign language to a beautiful song for the service.  You will definitely want to attend this service because it is truly moving and special.  Please be sure that your child is in their best uniform that is clean.  

A note will be going home about the first grade responsibilities for providing the reception for the second graders after their First Communion Mass.  We will provide the cookies, drinks, and the help for this event .  It's a really special event for our second graders, their families, and our school.  Be sure to check your child's planner on Monday. It will be stapled in their planner!  I appreciate any help you can provide before, during, and after the reception. Thank you !

Vocabulary and spelling will be going home on Monday. The practice spelling test will be on Wednesday and the final spelling test will be on Thursday due to Grandparents' day on Friday .
