Progress Reports went home on Friday. You have until Friday to sign and return them.
I saw some of you at the Comcast Clean-up Day and out at Relay For Life. Thank you for participating in these two events. The first grade did win the Mini Relay For Life penny war that was held several weeks ago on a Friday. We collected 65.00 that day. We won a free dress day that will be announced. The overall school penny war winner has not been announced.
Curriculum remains the same and we have completed all of the vocabulary words. So now it will be just reviewing them.
Have a great week. GOD LOVES YOU!

Thank you to all of you for the cookies and soda. The First Communion Mass was truly a religious experience. And the second graders all looked so nice in their new outfits. When the mass was over they all headed for the refreshment table. We had plenty of snacks. Thank you to those of you who took everything over to the church on Friday and set it up and thank you to those of you who helped on Saturday at First Communion. It was greatly appreciated.
On Monday there will be an all-school mass for the First Communicants. We hope you can join us. Progress Reports will go home on Friday. You have a week to sign and return them. Curriculum remains the same.
On Saturday and Sunday Relay For Life will be held at Merced College. If you have the time come out and join in the walk for a cancer cure.

APRIL 12-APRIL 16
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter vacation and celebrated the risen Christ.
We only have 7 weeks left of the school year. And we will be busy. Next Saturday, April 17, at 9:00 a.m., is the First Communion Mass for the second graders. We are in charge of the reception that day. I will be sending a note home on Monday as to what is needed. All first graders are to send in one 2-liter bottle of 7-Up and a dozen cookies by Friday morning. If you are needed to help on Friday or Saturday you will be notified.
Dismissal is at 12:30 on Friday.
In Language Arts we are now in Level 5 of our reading program. We continue to work on vowel sounds, digraphs, blends, contractions, compound words, the s, ed, and ing endings, double the consonant and add the ed or ing ending, sequencing, cause and effect, main idea, reading vocabulary and comprehension. In Math we are working on counting out money and we will be moving into telling time in a week. In Science we are learning about matter. In Social Studies we are learning about U.S. symbols. In P.E. we are finishing up a dance unit and will be moving into a bean bag unit. In Spelling we will start with long o this week. In Religion we will begin learning about the Holy Spirit as a helper.
Please work with your child counting out money. They should be able to take a group of coins and count it out for you. This is the way I teach it at school. I need to see how they got their answer. During this week I will be introducing the quarter. Thank you for all of your help with the reading packets that are going home. When your child is reading at home please have them think about reading loud enough for all to hear and to use expression while reading.
