Well the Follies are over and they were a great success. I am sure you enjoyed the show if you were able to go see it.
The first graders were so busy last week presenting the Stations of the Cross. They did a great job. Now we are preparing for the May Crowning that will be on Grandparent's Day on May 6. The 8th grade will once again be working with us. Please make sure that your child learns the words to the Hail Mary song. All first graders will be participating in the May Crowning.
The first grade is also responsible for the reception after the second grade's First Communion on May 7. I will be sending home a note to let you know what you are to bring. It will be either cookies or 7-Up. I will also need 2-3 parents to help out on that day and I will need 2 parents to take things over to the church on Thursday morning, May 5th. If you can help let me know. Thank you.
This is Holy Week and a good time to talk to your child about the events that occurred during that week. Hopefully you attended Mass on Palm Sunday. We have been discussing all of these events in class. The students have also made a Stations of the Cross booklet.
On Holy Thursday there will be a prayer service here at school at 8:00 in the morning in the auditorium. You are all invited to attend.
Curriculum remains the same. Continue to have your child review vocabulary words and read at home.
If you have read this blog have your child give Mrs. Mills' a "thumbs up". Have a great week. GOD LOVES YOU. HIS SON, JESUS, DIED FOR US ON THE CROSS.
