             GOD'S BLESSINGS
            
  Welcome to our Room 204 Family, where "we all fit together"! Our theme for this year is "God Has Chosen Me To Be... "
  
  
  First Quarter Ends...A New Quarter Begins!
  
  It is hard to believe your child has completed  their first quarter of Second Grade!  This quarter was the beginning of "firsts":  Social Studies, Science and Religion tests (and studying for them), writing in Homework notebooks, and turning computers on and setting up Xtra Math.  Your children continue to grow and increase their responsibilities.  I am very proud of them, and you should be, too!  I thank you for your support!
  
  The Second Quarter began on Nov. 1, All Saints Day.  How appropriate, as we continue to strive to be saints. 
  
  This Quarter we will "officially" begin talking about First Communion, as we will have our first meeting Parent Meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 13 @ 7:00 in Church. The children are very excited, and before we know it First Communion weekend will be here!
  
  Routines and Reminders:
  
  As the weather changes, students will start wearing (I hope!) coats, jackets, sweatshirts, and a little later on, gloves, hats, mittens and boots.  Please make sure your child's clothing and extras are labeled.  Also, please check to see if you have "acquired" new items.  A few of the students are missing their "Charger wear" school sweatshirt.
  
  Room 204 is doing a good job of writing in  the Homework Notebook and taking home/returning the homework.  Please remember to look the homework over and sign the notebook.  The students look forward to getting a stamp if the notebook is signed.
  
  Again, I appreciate all of your support with teaching your  children responsibility.  Believe me, it will be easier later on if they learn these life lessons now!
  
  Have a good week!
  
  St. Joan of Arc, Pray for Us!  Blessed Solanus Casey, Pray for Us!    I'm looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday morning!
