End of the school year

By -
It's been a pleasure to teach your children this year! Here are a couple fun pictures and updates from the last two weeks.

One last homeroom picture! 

7th graders did an awesome job helping run the elementary field day. 




We had the awesome opportunity  to hear from a Holocaust survivor. The message she gave us was beautiful! She told us to remove all hate from our hearts and to replace it with love.


House leaders! 

Congrats to all the houses. Siena is the winner this year. These are the highest totals of House points that we've seen. Nice work this year, Sacred Heart

Siena won Field Day today with 270 points, followed closely by Seton with 265.  The rest of the field was:  Kolbe: 230,  Neumann: 210, JP II: 125 and Benedict: 125.

Our overall House Results are:

Siena 3565
Seton 3399
JP II 3389
Neumann 3311
Kolbe 3295
Benedict 3147
Siena House!

We had a great time at field day! 



Students have turned in over 550 extra credit words this year! Incredible! These are Membean words they learned and read/heard/saw somewhere else. Way to apply your learning. :) 

These two ladies read over 40 books this year. Congratulations! What an accomplishment! 

Thank you, Price Chopper. We had fun at our pages parties. We had SO much food. My four classes read over 230,000 pages this year. Awesome!

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...
