January 27 - 31

It is Catholic Schools week here at All Saints (and I guess everywhere else in the country)!  Make sure you give thanks for the many blessings that we have here at this school, to our wonderful administration and staff, to the fantastic and selfless parents and volunteers, to the kids themselves, who make many of us still excited to come to school everyday.

Social Studies - There is a test this Thursday on Ch. 7.  We will be reviewing material in class Monday - Wednesday, students should expect a short review Tuesday night that will be due Thursday morning before the test.

Math - We are moving at a great pace with decimals, this week we will work on subtracting and estimating with them.  There should be a couple in-class assignments that students may need to take home to finish.  Expect a quiz on adding/subtracting decimals at any time.

Religion - This week we are going to devote to talking about the Catholic Social Teachings and memorizing the Nicene Creed, students need only practice about 5 minutes a night and they should have it memorized in little time.

Spelling/Vocabulary - The Unit 10 test is coming up this Friday for Spelling/Vocabulary.  Unit 10 words can be found on last week's blog post. 

Literature - We have put further readings of The City of Ember on hold until we get through with Iowa Basic testing (start next week, Feb. 3-6).  Instead of going further we have gone back and discussed key details and events from previous chapters.
