Wrapping up the 2nd Quarter

Hello everyone! I cannot believe we have reached the end of the 2nd quarter already! Time definitely flies when you're having fun (and it is fun teaching your children)!! I thought it would be interesting to reflect on some of the highlights of this past quarter:

• We took an exciting trip to the Detroit Science Center
• Celebrated Thanksgiving & Christmas with our whole school breaking bread together
• Don't forget the Thanksgiving Fowlies and the Turkey Trot!!
• 4th Graders learned about electricity & magnetism, the Michigan economy, 2-digit multiplication, and began learning about Earth's plates and what causes earthquakes & volcanoes
• Students read the novel Bridge to Terabithia
• Students also learned more about the Advent season and the Ten Commandments and did a wonderful job reading at Mass

The kids are doing a great job in class behavior wise and have received many compliments on their behavior from other staff members/parents.

I am sure that the 3rd Quarter will be just as rewarding as the first two!!
