Hello Families, Okay, I am over this cold weather and snow! I see 40s in the forecast for next week! I am thinking positive thoughts! I become a great aunt again on Valentine's Day. I have another great niece- Isabella Mae. She is so sweet with lots of hair! I can't wait to meet her in person! 

Calendar Dates:

Feb. 21- End of Trimester 2

Feb. 28- Book Reports Due

Mar. 1- STM Gala/Auction

Mar. 5- Ash Wednesday ( Lent Begins)

Mar. 3-6 Parent Teacher Conferences

Mar. 7-14 Spring Break

Reading- They will have their post test in spelling on Thursday. They will also have their selection quiz over the story that day. On Friday they will take their weekly test. That means next week we will start a new story and have a spelling pretest! 

Book Reports- The projects are due on Friday, February 28! I am planning on having them share them that day as well. 

Religion- They have been busy working on their saint projects. They had to choose a saint and do research on their life and take notes on that. Now they are creating a Google Slides presentation on them. They are having fun with that one! 

Math- I am working with kids now on correcting their tests. Once all have been corrected, I will send them home for you to see. The weather days have slowed me down on this one! Our next chapter is division! I may have to do some work on reminding them how to divide first. This chapter is all about dividing by 2-digit numbers. 

Conferences- Don't forget to schedule your conference time with me! 

Substitute- I will be gone on Thursday afternoon so there will be a sub here. I believe it is Mrs. Weight! I am going to move reading to the afternoon that day so I can take care of math. 

Clorox Wipes- We could use some more! Thank you to those who gave them to me as a Christmas present! They are much appreciated! 

I hope everyone has a great weekend! I plan on working on report cards, but maybe go to a movie too! 

God Bless,

Miss Surma
