Hello parents,

We did not have time to take a spelling test last Friday due to Mass and the pep rally, so we just took the test Tuesday.  I will be passing them back tomorrow.  I did go ahead and preview the new words with them yesterday so we will still have a test this Friday.  They should have taken home a list.  The words to study this week are:

2nd- place, well, here, such, take
3rd- room, sea, against, top, turned
Challenge- embarrassed, excluding, rumors, encourage, ashamed

Hello parents,

All of our readers did a beautiful job at Mass today.  We got several compliments about how well they read.  We also have Mass on the 17th.  Feel free to join us.

The Valentines' Day party is on Feb. 14 from 11:30 to 12:45.

We will be going on a field trip to the Ruth Lily Center on Feb. 21.  Information will come home this Friday.  We do not need chaperones for this trip.

For 3rd graders- ISTEP begins on March 5 and IREAD begins on March 19.  That is just around the corner!

Hello parents,

Please send in donations for our reverse raffle basket.  You can send in donations until Feb. 7.

We will be leading the Mass on Feb. 1 and on Feb. 17.  Everyone has a part in at least one of these Masses.  You are more than welcome to join us.  Mass begins at 8:30 am.  If your child has a reading, they will be bringing them home tonight.  It is always helpful to practice at home.

Thanks,

Mrs. Elliot

Scholastic Book Orders

Hello,
I wanted to let you know that I recently ordered 18 books from scholastic- 6 copies of each of the Titanic books on the last post (The kids are so excited to read them!).  I used all of my accumulated points from last year and this year.  Thanks to everyone who has ordered scholastic in the past for contributing to my point total!  Now, I am back down to 0 points so I wanted to remind you about scholastic book clubs.  See the letter below for information about ordering books.
