Hello Everyone,
The students used what they learned in their PERSUASIVE WRITING unit to convince me to change the seating plan one last time.

Thanks to Mrs. G for setting up a presentation put on by the Public Health Nurse to remind our students of the many functions of our brain and the importance of protecting such an important organ in our bodies. Ask your child to explain to you what 2 v 1 means.

Also in Health, we have been discussing the importance of dental care. We conducted a small experiment to see what would happen to the egg's shell when it came in contact with 3 different  materials. We'll see on Monday what happened! Ask your child what the outer layer of their teeth is called.

Our focus is Music and Dance in the Arts. The students had a chance to play two very familiar songs  using a percussion instrument called a boomwacker.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER......
Old math duotangs, homework books, spelling books, Young Authors stories and various other odds and ends will be coming home on Monday. These, as well as the other books that will be sent home at a later date, serve as excellent review material over the summer months for those "I don't know what to do on a rainy day" moments.

Yearbooks will also be distributed on Monday for those who ordered it in advance.

The St. Rita Annual School BBQ is this coming Tuesday from 5:30-8:00pm.
