Valentine's Day
There is no school on Friday, 2/14, so our class will be celebrating Valentine's Day Thursday. Students are not required to bring in Valentines; however if they'd like to we will passing them out at the end of the day. Here are some guidelines to follow:
What We're Learning...
Math: problem solving; estimate, measure, and convert units of capacity (cups, pints, quarts, gallons) and weight (ounces, pounds)
ELA: suffixes -er, -or, -ess, -ist; fact and opinion; contractions
Religion: Church features (liturgy, doctrine, hierarchy); how is part of the hierarchy of the Church (pope, cardinal, bishop, priest, deacon); Jesus chose St. Peter to be the first Pope and the Apostles to be the first bishops
Science: how energy flows through ecosystems through food chains and food webs
Social Studies: Ch. 4 test on Monday, 2/10; rights and responsibilities of citizens; why we have rules and laws and what are some consequences from breaking them
This Week...

There is no school on Friday, 2/14, so our class will be celebrating Valentine's Day Thursday. Students are not required to bring in Valentines; however if they'd like to we will passing them out at the end of the day. Here are some guidelines to follow:
- Please do not send them before Thursday, 2/13
- Please do not pre-name the Valentines
- Student will be placing one in everyone's bag, and the process goes much smoother when students aren't frantically moving around trying to find everyone's name.
- Please make sure there is one for everyone
- We have 32 students altogether in the class.
- If your student would like to get a Valentine that comes with a treat, please consider one with a non-edible treat like a sticker or pencil, or a treat without nuts. That way students with nut allergies can enjoy too!
