Gr. 5 Students and Parents,

Happy New Year and welcome back! I hope everyone had a good and restful holiday.

We will finish our S.S. unit on Mapping with a quiz on Friday. Today we went over what to study and review in the S.S. duo-tang. 7 continents, 5 oceans, countries and capital cities, comparing a map to a globe, lines of latitude and longitude and reading positions on a map using coordinates of lines of latitude and longitude.

Also Wednesday is our first Skiing date. Be at school at 6:50am.

Today several notices went home to families: 1. Re-registration note  2. Information regarding Mr. Lee’s funeral mass       3. Choir note for Mr. Lee’s mass   4. Book order

Also a big thank you to all the families for their good wishes and generous gifts in December. I am always amazed at the giving spirit of the St. Joseph the Worker community and I am so lucky to be a part of it. Thank you again!

Sincerely,  Nancy Ebert
