Happy 2013!!!

Boys and Girls,

Welcome back to school. Thank you for a great first two days of 2013! We are going be learning so many new things this year and it is so wonderful to see you all ready to listen and learn.

HOMEWORK

This weekend you need to read each day at www.raz-kids.com and work on your gold bars at www.mathletics.com. Have fun! Please have Mom and Dad email Mrs. Wall when you have completed ALL gold bars ("something easier" and "something harder" bars also) and she can give you more tasks.


FIELD TRIP MONDAY

We are going to see the play: Miss Nelson is Missing on Monday morning.  Please bring a small snack with you in a disposable bag (paper or plastic that you will throw away while we are away from school) that you can take with you on the field trip.  All students must be in full uniform with their RED SWEATSHIRTS on Monday morning.

STAYING WARM AT SCHOOL

It has been VERY cold in the mornings here at school.  PLEASE wear a jacket or coat to school everyday. Playing outside early in the morning is too cold not to wear something other than a sweatshirt. Please dress appropriately for the weather these next couple months.

FAMOUS HEROES

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. and ALL of the important heroes that we have in the world, we are starting our Heroes Project for Social Studies this month.  Please take a look at the website: http://www.gardenofpraise.com/leaders.htm and read about a couple of the famous heroes. You will get more information about what you need to do for this project in the coming weeks.

SACRAMENT PREPARATION

We are nearing the end of our preparation! =) You should not have your folder home with you this weekend unless you have not completed something in chapters 1-4.  This next week your folder will be going home on TUESDAY night and must be returned on THURSDAY to school.  The final week (chapter 6) will be completed the same way as we are getting close to our First Reconciliation.

UPCOMING EVENTS

The St. Lawrence Talent Show and Games Club~Round 2 will be coming soon...

  Please read Connections with Mom and Dad each week AND CHECK THIS WEBSITE EVERYDAY to see what is new and going on in second grade and at St. Lawrence.
