Mrs. Quinto's Weekly Newsletter

    Good Afternoon Families!

I hope you were able to have a nice weekend even though the rain and wind stuck around  today.


The first DINE TO DONATE night is this Thursday hosted by Glenside Pizza.  A flyer will be stapled into your child's homework planner with the details.

Friday is PICTURE DAY !  The order form will be sent home tomorrow in your child's homework folder.

This week in reading, the class will be learning to identify key details that help support the theme or main idea of a story.   These details could be found in illustrations or text  The class will also learn that the subject of a sentence is sort of like the main character of a story  --- it is the "who" or "what' the sentence is all about.
Thank you so very much for helping your child with their spelling homework last week!   This week's spelling pattern involves 2-letter blends (such as :   sk, cl, br, ck, ).  A new spelling menu will be sent home tomorrow and will be due back on Friday.

We will conclude Chapter 1 in math with a test on Tuesday.   Our next chapter will involve learning about subtraction strategies to solve math facts from 20.

In Religion, the class will learn about the very beginnings of our church.  We will talk about Jesus choosing the Twelve Apostles and the importance of His Resurrection.

In social studies, the students will compare an urban community to a rural community. And, in science, we will learn more about  solid's characteristics by conducting a "Cracker Lab" during which the students will identify the physical characteristics of different types of crackers. 

Be on the look out for Test Folders this week.  Please take the time to look over your child's assessments and if you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to me. 

Enjoy the rest of your day!
