HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
The fourth grade students were spectacular as they hosted the OLA School Thanksgiving Mass today! Every child participated and did well in their roles of service!
I want to extend my warmest wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am personally thankful for such a fabulous fourth grade class full of active catholics, responsible citizens, life-long learners, and ambassadors of hope!
Just a reminder..... the outline section of the Mission Report is due on Monday, November 30th when we return to school. Weekly homework folders will be given out to students then and will be due back to class on Thursday, December 3rd. (Yes, only three nights of homework as we return to school next week!)
Finally, there are a few students that have not turned in their Nutcracker permission slips which were due today along with the $6 fee. PLEASE bring these forms completed to school on Monday!
THANK YOU!!!

Gerber Baby Food- Glass Baby Food Jar Collection
4th grade students are progressing well in Language Arts and began a unit on business today in class. Students learned about the the Gerber Baby Food Company and how Dan and Dorothy Gerber founded this company in the late 1920's out of a desire to find an easier way to provide food for their own baby.
Students learned about creating a business plan and the pro's and con's of starting a successful business. In an effort to extend their learning and as an exercise of being good stewards of God's creation....4th graders are starting a glass baby food jar drive. Students are asked to collect empty,sanitized glass baby food jars to bring to class to use for future art projects. While Gerber Baby food provides a great service to parents across the country, the glass jars are not biodegradable and should be reused or recycled whenever possible. As Ambassadors of Hope the 4th grade class has set out on a mission to collect as many emptied glass baby jars as possible to be reused in the classroom for future art projects. Thanks so much!!

4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
First of all, thank you to the parents that chaperoned our field trip to Mission San Juan Capistrano. The students were delighted to experience the mission. There were lots of smiles and everyone behaved extremely well!
Also, enclosed in this homework folder is another week’s worth of work. Please review your student’s progress and return any work marked “Signed and Returned” with a parent’s signature. Students receiving below a 75% on any test have the opportunity to make corrections on errors made on the test (on a separate piece of paper) and return it to me by the following Tuesday. This applies to all subjects. For spelling tests, students are expected to write any misspelled word 5 times each in their neatest writing. These efforts will allow the students to receive a C grade on any test. However, if corrections are not turned in the following week, then the original grade issued will remain. Parents can check the homework folders weekly to review student work or login at www.gradelink.com to review part of each student’s grade.
Next, there is a free dress on Monday for any student donating four canned food items to our food drive. Report Cards will go home next Friday, October 20th. Parent/Teacher conferences will begin the following week. Please refer to the schedule sent home in last month’s tuition envelope.
Finally, 4th grade will host the all school mass on Wednesday, November 25th @8:15 am. Please join us in church! Have a great week, and thank you for choosing OLA School.

4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
The homework sheet is different this week due to our half day today, the Veteran’s Day holiday in the middle of the week, and our field trip scheduled for Thursday, November 12, 2009. All students in 4th grade desperately need to study their multiplication tables and I have chosen to use this week to ask that the majority of their homework time be spent studying all tables 1-12! Please work with your child for 30 minutes each day quizzing them and studying these tables.
There will not be vocabulary and spelling work due since we will not have an adequate amount of class time to work on this week’s lesson. Instead, students are working on a creative writing project about a Thanksgiving turkey. Please encourage your student to write legibly and use correct spelling, punctuation, and grammar throughout the story.
Please remember to arrive to school on Thursday early at 7:15 am so we can leave for the mission on time. We should return to OLA by 3:15 pm. Again, students need to wear full uniforms and bring a packed lunch and water bottle. Any students that have not turned in their permission slip and money should bring them in on Monday. Please feel free to contact me through my email @ yschemenauer.ourladyofassumption.ocs@sbdiocese.org or by sending a note to school with your child.

Parents can check the homework folders weekly to review student work or login at http://www.gradelink.com/ to review part of each student’s grade
Enclosed in this folder is a permission slip for our field trip to San Juan Capistrano. This field trip is planned for Thursday, November 12th. Please note the fee includes entrance to the mission, a guided tour, an adobe activity event, and the bus. The most expensive part of the trip is the bus which includes gas to and from the mission. I know this is an expensive field trip, but I also know how much the students enjoy it every year and watch them learn so much. Every parent is welcome to attend, but chaperones must pay a separate fee in addition to the student’s fee. Each year we have had parents come and enjoy the full day of hands-on learning the mission field trip provides. Also, the fourth grade students have not attended any other field trips this school year in anticipation of spending more money on one field trip rather than using smaller amounts of money for many field trip excursions.
Please note that the students are completing a Native American Book as their chapter 2 social studies test. They will be given one social studies period each day between now and Friday, November 6th. If they don’t use their time wisely in class they will need to use additional time at home to complete the book(test) about California’s first people group.(Due Friday, November 6th, 2009)
Have a great week, and thank you for choosing OLA School.
