Homework

Book Report Assignment
The children will be assigned a Place Mat Book Report that will be completed 
at home.  They will need to choose a chapter book to read.  When they finish 
the book, they will take a 10 question online quiz testing their 
comprehension.  I will need to approve the book to make sure that I have a 
quiz for the book they've selected.  Most Scholastic books are available.  
They will then fill out papers writing the characters, setting and a short 
summary of the book on a paper fork, spoon and knife.  On a plate they will 
neatly draw and color a picture showing a favorite scene from the book.  The 
completed plate, spoon, fork and knife papers will be due in school on 
Wednesday, Jan. 27th.  We will assemble the placemat together in school.  
Instructions along with the blank papers will come home in the Wednesday 
folder on Jan. 6th.  This will count as a reading grade.



The students have begun working on their Reconciliation book.  Inside the 
front cover is a Confession format paper.  Please make sure that your child 
can say the Act Of Contrition Prayer that is listed on that paper.  We say it 
every day at dismissal but some of them still don't know it word for word.  
Reconciliation is quickly approaching!  Also, don't forget the Parent Meeting 
for 3rd graders receiving sacraments this year.  It is on Tuesday, 
Jan. 12th.  The time has changed.  It now starts at 6:45 PM.  You will be 
given your date for First Communion along with other important information.  
At least one parent must attend for each child.  This is a parents only 
meeting.
