Happy Friday! 1/21

Hi Parents! 

What fickle weather we've been having! No worries, we are rolling along with our schedule in 5th grade. 

Next week, we'll be doing some CSW prep and wrapping up our studies on our large unit for Parts of the Mass. The best study tool the students could use would be attending mass. We'll be doing some final reviews this week. I hope you've seen our color card collection grow as we've been working through each section. 

We'll also soon be working on a math project and we could use some donations of food store ads. I'm looking for food with prices as decimals, so ads that promote sales such as 25% off or 2 for $4 won't work for us. We'd like prices like $1.49 and $6.79. Please remove ads for alcohol and or tobacco products.

Our Spelling Bee will be next week. We will also wrap up our studies on the Ancient Hebrews. This is just in time for us to begin Greece and coincide with the start of the Olympics! 

Thursday: SS Ancient Hebrews Test
Friday: Rel POM Test

Everyone will receive a grade for the Spelling Bee. This is not solely based on their performance, but also sportsmanship, cooperation, self-control, and patience. Any of these inappropriate behaviors or speaking when it is not your turn will dock your grade. 

We are still on an every Friday schedule for test packets. They should be signed and returned within 2 school days.

Have a great weekend! Think warm thoughts! God Bless You!
