Father Kastle blessed our rosaries after mass today. I tried to get pictures for the 5th graders that were on a field trip today, but they didn't turn out (good thing I don't teach a photography class).

Kaleidoscope

We are learning about Egyptian pyramids. We have talked about the Great Pyramid being made of over 2 million blocks. We have discussed how scientists today are still perplexed by the Egyptian pyramids. We have started our own pyramids out of sugar cubes.

Creative Living finished their latest project. They really "Nailed It"!!!!

We started our magazine bowls today.

Study Skills

We are finally getting the routine of Study Skills down!  On a whole, they are doing really well! I encourage you to stay on top of missing assignments. It is hard and overwhelming to them when they get too far behind.

     "Don't get upset with the results you didn't get

       With the work you didn't do".

We have finished our rosaries! They turned out beautiful. The kids are very proud of them, as they should be. I will have them on display all of next week. Father Kastle is blessing them this afternoon. Have a wonderful weekend!!!

 Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee.

2nd-4th grade Kaleidoscop

Please remember to bring in a package of sugar cubes by monday.
Thanks!!!!

Kaliedoscope

We have started our unit on Ancient Egypt this week in Kaliedoscope. We talked about herioglyphics  and how it goes back 5,000 years. The students wrote their names and put a cartouche around it (have them tell you what it is and why some would put it around their name).

Kaleidoscope

We had a good first week in Kaleidoscope. Since I don't know most of them, we wrote poems about ourselves.  They did a great job and it was a good way for me to get to know about each of them.   Next week we start our unit on Ancient Egyptian culture. I will keep you posted throughout our journey through Egypt!

We are close to finishing our rosary. If your child has not finished rolling their beads they are to bring them home this weekend. We are going to string them on monday and begin our nail art on tuesday.

Busy rolling beads for our rosary

Study Skills

Please make sure that your child is having their planners signed after each class and that they have their work in their best friend ( binder). I  am seeing some of my students lose so many points every day on something that should be "easy points". However, we are making progress and I have to say that I have been impressed when I have done my random locker checks!

Creative Living

We started our rosaries today. We discussed the different parts of the rosary, why we pray it, and the importance of Mary in the Catholic faith.
