Room 4

Please check your child's homework planner daily. There are reminders and notes from me and the other teachers, as well as the daily homework assignments. Please see the note from Mrs. Chappelow concerning Art supplies for 5th Graders. Reminder: Reading Calendars need to be turned in each Friday. A parent is required to sign the calendar. I would like to have the Family Information Sheets back as soon as possible. Duplicate copies were sent today. We talked about the dress code requirements for 5th Graders today. Please refer to the Cultural Guide or ask if you have any questions.

Room 4 News

Welcome to a new school year! We have had an extremely busy few days. -On Monday, all the students were involved in the "Holy Games", which were a series of teambuilding activities. Fr. Chris gave a great talk about being a light for others. We have been keeping with that theme this week, and the class has been watching for examples of being a light and examples of blowing out someone's light. -On Tuesday we spent the morning in homeroom getting organized and going over procedures. The students spent the afternoon practicing their schedule and visiting each of their classes. -On Wednesday (today) we attended Mass for the Holy Day of Obligation. The readings for Mass were done beautifully by Abby Conway, Ian Brown, Mackenzie Woods, Caleb Land, and Sydney Geibel. -Just a couple of reminders: Room 4 has PE on Mondays and Thursdays. Everyone needs to bring $5.00 to pay for their assignment notebook (planner) by next Friday. Family Information Sheets were sent home yesterday and should be returned as soon as possible. Scholastic book order forms were sent home today. Orders are due next Wednesday. I have a great group of students in Room 4, and I know we are going to have a great year! Mrs. McMahon
