A Look at Feb. 5-9

We are have a busy week ahead of us as we prepare for the 2018 Olympics, and the Lenten season. 

A look into our class....
Each table of students has picked a country to research and track medals for during the Olympics. Starting tomorrow they will be creating posters that will be displayed around the room. Tomorrow(Feb. 7) will be Bring your own device (If you can) to help make research a bit easier.

As we make our way through the Olympic games there will be a number of Olympic themed Language and Math activities we will be doing in class. Be sure to ask your child about what's happening!

Ash Wednesday-February 14
Our class is hosting the Ash Wednesday Liturgy at St. Gab's. We invite parents to attend. More information will be posted later in the week.
