Dear Parents,

 

Today was Destiny Totor’s birthday.  Happy Birthday Destiny!  Some of you signed up to go to the outdoor May Crowning Mass at Central Catholic on Sunday.  Please be there at 12:45 in your First Communion clothes.  They will have seats reserved up front for the second graders.  Canopies and tents will be set up if it is raining.

 

Wednesday, May 21st is the school May Crowning Mass at 8:30am.  Your child should wear their First Communion outfit to school and bring their school clothes to change into afterwards.

 

We have one more week of Time Tests!  Please practice.  If your child does not seem to be memorizing these, continue to practice them every once in awhile over the summer.  All addition and subtraction facts up to 20 should be memorized for third grade.

 

We made our “stone soup” on Monday.  Some of the children liked it, but others did not really care for it.  They did a great job acting out the play though!

 

Please turn in your child’s Interim Reports if you haven’t and the field trip form for “Fun Fortress.”  Have a great weekend!
