Last chance for 8th grade magazine

By -
8th grade families, 

Happy Easter! Just a reminder that the 8th grade magazine will be on sale this weekend at Brown Bottle. Today I received a sample of the final product from the printer, and it looks awesome! The magazine title was selected by the students (This is Us), and 50 students chose to contribute. The proceeds from the magazine benefit Sacred Heart. I have had several of you send in money with your children because you will not be able to attend the auction. If you are not able to attend but would still like a magazine, please send me your $20 cash or check (made out to Sacred Heart) this week. If you want to keep your purchase of the magazine a secret from your child because you’re planning to purchase as a gift, let me know that too. Thanks! Feel free to email me (sarah.rajewski@shoj.org) with any questions.


Thanks, 

Miss R.

Faith Families

We're excited for faith families tomorrow! The 8th graders are doing a wonderful job leading. The 7th graders have also been great role models for the first grade buddies in Mass. They also had the chance to help the first graders to make their prayer books. It surprised them to remember that they once practiced saying the Hail Mary, which now comes so easily. Your student will be bringing home information about a service project that we are participating in as faith families. One faith family plays a game to get to know each other.  Each eighth grader helps lead about ten students.  Check out those neon prayer books!    Almost done!  Seventh graders and first graders hard at work.

Last week, 8th graders worked on compound sentences. They made life-sized FANBOYS (conjunctions: For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So), which we're finishing up this week. They will have a test in a couple weeks. We also read "The Tell-Tale Heart," and Mrs. Kelly dressed up as Edgar Allan Poe on the same day! This week, we have started writing our National Novel Writing Month project, where students are trying to write a word-count goal they set for themselves. We're also finishing our read aloud, Fish , and tying in some SCOPE nonfiction text about refugees and child labor laws throughout the world. We will be starting Christmas Carol next week!  7th graders finished up a month of SCOPE magazine today. I loved seeing their play presentations last Friday. Their costumes were creative! We will be starting our WWII unit this week. One class will be reading Daniel's Story , while the other focuses on background information about the time period -- and then we'l...
