Post date: May 18, 2020 1:07:24 AM
Hello Families - Happy Monday! We are in the home stretch! Work for the week follows, but if you haven't already, please be sure to send me last week's written assignments as follows:
From the Reading Workbook: pgs. 517, 526, 528
From the English book: pgs. 184, 185, 186
From the Math book: pgs. 830, 836, 840

From Journal: Virtual Field Trip to the Field Museum - at least 3 Fascinating Facts
Parents, you will receive an email from Ms. Hayes detailing how we will be collecting hardcover textbooks and any work that needs to be physically turned in. We will be following guidelines set forth by the Governor and the Archdiocese of Chicago that focus on doing this in the safest way possible, with minimal numbers of people at St. Linus at the same time. Details are still being finalized, but on the designated day for our grade, you'll need to return the hardcover Reader and I will have some materials that were left behind in desks safely bagged and labeled for pickup.
None of the softcover workbooks need to be returned - they are yours to keep or toss after our last day of school. We will continue to work through then, but won't be using the Reader. If you have any questions after receiving the email, please let me know and I'll do my best to answer them.
