Monday- Family Excercise Day. Take a picture of you and your family doing some kind of excercise such as bike riding.
Tuesday- Family Game Day- Play a board game or put together a puzzle with your family and send a photo.
Wednesday- Family Talent Day. Be creative and send a video of a talent your family has such as doing a dance routine or playing an instrument. Video can only be 20 seconds long.
Thursday- Family Reading Day. Take a photo of yourself relaxing with a book you are currently reading.
Friday- Family Crazy Socks Day. Take a picture of you and your family's feet sporting cool socks.
Let's make this a positive, fun Spirit Week!

Important Information for Parents/Guardians
     As we begin a new week I know the students will be continuing to work hard on their assignments at home. Keep up the good work!
     Parents, beginning this week, I will be requesting that you email to me  some, not all, of the student's completed classwork. I will let you know which of the student's completed assignments I am requesting be emailed. When I post new assignments on the webpage for the students I will let you know if I would like that assignment emailed to me. Classwork that I have not requested be emailed to me can be brought to school when we return to school.  Please email the assignments to mwiepert5569@sscmweb.org
     Thank you. I look forward to seeing you all when we return back to school. Stay well.
     
                                Lent
         As we continue through Lent preparing for the celebration of Jesus' Resurrection at Easter we can live our lives as Jesus taught us. Some thing we may choose to do this week is to continue to set aside time each day to pray and we can treat those around us with kindness.
                                      Lent
      Lent is a time to prepare for the celebration of Jesus' Resurrection at Easter.  Some things we may choose to do during this week in Lent is each day we can set aside a time to pray. We can share with others the love that Jesus has shown us by being kind to those around us.

     As we start a new week I wanted to let you know that I am thinking of all of you and your families.  I hope all is well with everyone.  With spring starting last week we are beginning to be able to enjoy spring weather. Before we know it the flowers will be blooming!  During this time at home maybe you have been able to enjoy playing board games with your family. Maybe you have been reading a good book. Continue to do your school work and I look forward to when we all can return to school.  


A Lenten Activity
Sister Susan and Father Guis are requesting that the students make cards for doctors, nurses and hospital staff.  Parents can drop off the cards at the Parish Center which is open Monday through Saturday, from 9:00am-1:00pm.







     Welcome to the Fourth Grade! I look forward to a wonderful school year!  The following is some helpful information as you child begins Fourth Grade.  
     We have snack every morning so if you would like your child to have a snack please send a snack in with them.  
     Homework is usually assigned Monday through Thursday. All homework assignments, upcoming projects and tests are both written in the student planner and posted on the class web page.
     Study Guides are given at least a week in advance of a test.  I request that the Study Guides be signed by parents/guardians and returned in the homework folder.  After I check that the Study Guides have been signed they are returned to the students to be used to study for their test.  I encourage the students to study each night as they prepare for their tests.
     All graded tests are returned to the students to be signed by parents/guardians.  All signed tests are kept in the student's folder and are returned to the student at the end of the school year.  All grades are posted on Power School.
     After a student has been absent from school please  send in an absent note with the student when they return to school.
     Again, I am looking forward to a wonderful school year filled with interesting and fun learning!
