Week of October 6th

Dear Parent/s,

I was very happy with how well the kids did on their tests this week, especially their Magic Words. The more they master these words the easier reading will be for them. We began our math facts this week as well. These facts are also very important for the kids to master. Please be sure to review the flashcards or play games each night. Thanks for all that you do at home to reinforce what we are learning in school! 

Reminders:

- We would love for you to join us at our monthly Mass this Tuesday at 9:00 am.

- Saint Project story due this Friday! Please let me know if you have any questions.

- We have two service projects going on this month. If you have any old Halloween costumes that you would like to donate, or if you would like to donate a new pair of socks please send them in! Thanks :)

- Just a heads up, winter uniforms will begin Monday, October 13th.

I think that is it for this week!
