There will be no Religion homework this week or the next. When there is a question at the bottom of the Religion homework, please make sure your child answers the question on another piece of paper.
As part of our Religion program in Kindergarten, we often tell stories about the lives of the Saints. As you know, November 1st is the Feast of All Saint. As a class project, I am asking the children to choose a Saint and dress accordingly on Monday, November 2nd. A simple costume will do and the children come to school dressed as that Saint. We will be going to Mass with the school that day and the Kindergartners will process into the Mass with Fr. Henry and our Our Lady of the Assumption altar servers.
There are several books about Saints with pictures in our classroom if you need some ideas. Come in and I will help you. Your child should be able to say a sentence or two about the Saint he/she represents. This is 50% of your child's Religion grade.
On another note, our annual Math-A-Thon is this Friday, October 23rd. We start after assembly. Those parents, who volunteered to help, please meet me at the Kindergarten door so I can tell you the procedure. This is a fundraiser, so please make sure you have plenty of sponsors for your child; 100% of what you bring in goes toward your assessment.
It's a win win situation, what a deal!!!!!
