A date to remember:  Sunday, March  11 is the First Communion retreat.  We are to meet in the cafe at 1:00-3:00PM
Tonight some of the children have spelling, math and phonics to finish.  As always they can work on their reading log.

The children need to have their First Eucharist book tomorrow for our next lesson.
Homework tonight is a comprehension paper that they are to read to you.  Please help them with the questions.  The time you spend on this can be logged onto their weekly reading log. We are still working on Unit 20 words in Spelling this week.

Tonight's homework is to study for a spelling test and to be sure to turn in the weekly reading log.

If your child's First Eucharist book is not here at school, please make sure it is here tomorrow.  We will be doing our next lesson then.

Homework tonight is a spelling paper about hard and soft c.

Tomorrow we will be going to the Ruth Lilly Health Education Center on a field trip.  The children are to be in uniform and need to bring their lunch.  We will be eating in our classrooms when we return at 12:00 tomorrow.  I told the children to bring a small snack to eat tomorrow morning before we leave on the field trip.  We usually eat lunch at 10:55 and tomorrow we won't eat until around 12.
The children are bringing home the new spelling words for this week.  Please have them make a copy of them to keep at home and then have them bring back their spelling notebook tomorrow. They also have a timeline to do for homework.  They will need your help with it.
All of our supplies have lasted throughout the school year except for glue sticks.  WE NEED MORE GLUE STICKS.

The second grade will be doing the Holy Thursday Service for the whole school on April 5 at 2:00 in the church.  Today I sent home the readings with the children who have reading parts.  We will not begin practicing here at school for two weeks yet, but I want the children to know all the words in their speaking parts before then.  Would you please go over your child's parts with them so they know all the words? They do not have to memorize their parts.  They will be reading them.  The children who will be playing the part of one the apostles and Jesus have a note also to let you know what they will be doing.

For Lent the second grade has decided to collect change for The Humane Society.  We have a gallon milk jug that the kindergartens decorated for us and we are going to try to fill it with change by Easter.

The children are bringing home their first Eucharists books tonight.  Please do the home session with them and have the book back to school on Tuesday, Feb. 21st. 
Homework tonight is to study for the spelling test tomorrow and get the weekly reading log turned in.
