Hello,

I added two examples for subtraction in the math examples tab.  I have noticed that some of the kids are having a hard time with subtraction on the homework.  Both examples were on third grade homework last night.  There is a math test on Friday so make sure they understand the strategies.

As you may know, the school is working on a project to help our sister parish in Honduras get new uniforms for the schoolchildren.  We are collecting gently used shoes and money to buy the uniforms with.  $15.00 will buy one uniform for a child in Honduras.  If you want to help, encourage your child to find a way to earn the money.  Have them do some work around the house so that they can learn about sacrifice.

2nd graders have a test on Friday in religion.  They are studying the Liturgy and have a list to study off of.

Thanks,
Mrs. Elliot
