Grade 1-2 News 4-13-15

Divine Mercy Sunday

Grade One/Two News April 13-17, 2015

Greetings on the Second Sunday of Easter! While the stores put Easter items on clearance, in the church we get to celebrate Easter for 50 days! Woohoo!

As you know, we have begun our unit on dinosaurs. In reading/language we will read a fiction story about dinosaurs and read it as a reader’s theatre. I hope that we can perform it later in the week; I will get back to you on that as things develop. Our sounds are the prefixes un, re, and dis.

In math we continue the geometry unit and discuss congruency and coordinates. Firsts will learn more about place value, while seconds subtract 2 and 3 digits with and without trading.

Religion’s focus is the Mass, of course, and the Eucharist. Thanks to all who helped make our retreat such a wonderful event! Special thanks to the Mrs. Adams and Hague for cutting out all those pesky letters. J

We will learn about the 3 time periods in which dinosaurs lived and begin our famous hall display which shows that. Our virtual field trip is Tuesday. If you have not had an opportunity to send your child’s $5 for that special event, please do so. I am sorry, but this time I just feel I need to ask your help with some of the cost for this worthwhile event. Thanks much.

You may have heard that my husband’s mother died last week. Three of my children and I are headed to Casper right after the retreat today for her Monday funeral. Please pray for the repose of her soul and peace for my husband’s family as they deal with the loss. And I hope you can excuse some of my disconnectedness which has been pretty apparent the last few days. J
