LANGUAGE ARTS: This week we read and discussed May Day Around the World and Goal. May Day Around the World is a narrative nonfiction selection while Goal is an informational text about soccer. We worked on skills such as decoding word with open and closed syllables, identifying and using prepositions and prepositional phrases that tell when and where, decoding words with the suffixes "y" and "ly," using story vocabulary in context, and learning ten new high-frequency words.
MATH: We started a new chapter over shapes and their attributes. So far students have described plane shapes by how they look and drew polygon shapes and cubes.
FIRST EUCHARIST: First Eucharist will take place on Saturday, May 3 at 5:00 P.M. There will be a reception following Mass in the church basement.
SECOND GRADE MASS: Next Wednesday, May 7, the second grade is in charge of the school Mass. We will also have a May crowning during this Mass. Please look in the take home folder for more information concerning this special Mass, as well as your child's part for the Mass.
SCIENCE: We started a new unit over how people grow and change. So far we have described the many ways people grow and change during their lives. We compared how people are alike and different at different stages of life.
GLOW-A-THON: The St. Malachy PTO Glow-a-Thon will take place next Thursday, May 8 during your child's P.E. class. Students may wear sweatpants to school on this day if they choose. Please have your child wear comfortable tennis shoes since they will be doing a lot of running.
