The calendar says it's spring; however, as I write this it is still rainy and cold!
This week is the holiest week of the Church year which includes Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday. All Lent has prepared us for the great feast of Easter.
Our recent religion classes have been centered on these holy days. The children have also made and sent Easter wishes to the members of our T.O.Y. program.
The children have become avid readers this passed quarter. Most of them have read a book to the class. This is quite an achievement
Formal spelling lessons were introduced into the curriculum and the children seem to like the challenges this brings.
They are currently intent on learning and memorizing the addition and subtraction facts through 20. Next will come 2-digit addition and subtraction as well as measurement.
In science they are involved with the study of matter: solids, liquids and gases.
Mrs. Wade's social studies has been studying our country and our heroes.
We just began the last quarter of the school year. I am always amazed at all that has been learned so far and we have more material to cover!
All the Sisters of Divine Providence join me in wishing you and your family a joyful and Blessed Easter season!
