We will revisit the Scholastic Book Fair on Monday for those who would like to purchase books. Please remember your money and your wish list. Don't forget to calculate the amount of sales tax needed!
In Math this week we continue to work with money concepts. Making change can be a difficult skill to master, so please encourage practice at home.
We are preparing to celebrate the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation for the first time. Your child is bringing home the Act of Contrition prayer (on green paper) to help them prepare. Please work with them to memorize this prayer over the next two weeks. This is an important part of their religious education and they will need your encouragement at home.
