Happy Catholic Schools Week

Fri. January 28 – Thursday February 3, 2011
4th Grade Homework Sheet

Dear Students and Parents,
Happy Catholic Schools Week! The theme this year is
“A+ for America”- Please refer to the yellow sheet sent home last week for all the details. Remember, students not wanting to participate in the different theme days may continue to wear the appropriate OLA uniform throughout the week.
We will begin reading Trumpet of the Swans on Monday, January 31, 2011. Each student needs a copy of the book for class. Please check the school library or local libraries for a copy of the book if you do not want to purchase it. The students will work on improving reading comprehension skills while reading this story and practice writing more effectively. Student’s grades can be checked by visiting www.gradelink.com regularly.
Also, next Friday (2/4/11) is our monthly school Mass in church. Students should wear full mass uniform. Parents are welcome to join us in this celebration at 8:15am sharp. School will dismiss at noon, so please have transportation arrangements made accordingly.
Remember, it is a fact that students that read the best are the students that often read the most. Students can use the classroom library, the OLA school library, and any books you have purchased them or may check out from a public library. Just use the Accelerated Reader link at www.olabruins.com to check the book to be sure it is in fact in their AR level.
Please turn in any pledge money for the Jog-A-Thon to class so that it can be counted toward your 2nd trimester assessment fees. Thank you for your participation!!
Also, please check the homework folders for any tests in which students have scored below 75%. Students may make corrections on a separate sheet of paper for tests only. Again, since we are in the middle of 2nd trimester many students need to re-stock their supplies for the classroom: glue sticks, sharpened pencils, erasers, paper, etc.
Have a fabulous week and please feel free to contact me by sending a note with your child or through my diocesan email: yschmenauer.ourladyoftheassumption.ocs@sbdiocese.org.
