Parents, It is hard to believe that tomorrow is the last day of November.
Fourth grade is very busy, and it seems we have a lot to do before Christmas, and the end of the semester.
Today the students brought home several notes, and the green or red one, especially needs your attention.
We began making Christmas cards today for the parishioners who are unable to attend Mass. These cards will be delivered by the Eucharistic Ministers when they deliver communion closer to Christmas.
Please be looking for an e-mail explaining our service project for the year.
We are completing our 4th chapter in Social Studies. There will not be a formal test over this chapter. We have been completing small projects in class as we have read each lesson.
Please ask your child to explain order of operations to you. ( Always doing multiplication and division, before addition and subtraction, and working left to right.) This concept was difficult for some students.
As we entered Advent we have added the Advent wreath and the Jesse Tree to our morning prayer. Ask your child about the Jesse tree. They were very interested in the idea of Jesus's family tree and several shared their own family tree with us. We have begun the study of the Ten Commandments in religion and are making Bible maps of the Isrealites leaving Egypt and Moses receiving the Ten Commandments on Mt. Sinai.
You can see it is a busy time, and there are a lot of exciting things happening in our classroom.
