Hi all - Sorry for the delay in posting comments. I usually get notifications on my phone and sometimes it just locks up. I finally figured it was weird that I hadn't received any email in over a day. So I apologize. As for today, no there is not a history test. I postponed it again, this time to Tuesday. Happy Catholic Schools Week.

All we did today was a lot of accel math, two play practices, and our gift exchange. Progress reports are going home, I only had 8 out of 13 students return the last one. Don't forget those extra credit points do add up.

There are no assignments over break. Students should concentrate on reading so they can make their reading goals by January 20th. Extra Credit has not been created but I should have work ready for students on their return to classes on January 3rd!

I will see everyone tonight.

2011 has been great. I look forward to an even better 2012. Thanks parents for entrusting me with your children daily. I love my job!

Parents - If you have not called to schedule a conference please do so. I am here today after school until late. Tomorrow until 4:30 and late again on Wednesday. If you would like to bypass a conference let me know and I'll send home the report card with your child.

Also, I am not sending home progress reports today. We have only had 3 days of school in the third marking period with grades so they are fairly skewed anyways. Look for them next Monday and you can always check TeacherEase if you would like.

3rd - I need a holy picture that doesn’t focus on one person. It can be heaven, people praying, anything holy and that you found beautiful.

I need you to find online 3 pictures of the above. Write a very short blurb (1-3 sentences) about each Saint or Holy person describing why they were chosen as Saints. Write as if someone is reading about the person who’s never heard of them before.

On the general holy pictures just say why you chose the said picture and what it conveys to you.

You will not be printing anything off. I will be incorporating your info into a slideshow presentation. You need to send me your work either by email to dpapesh @ steliz.net or you can give it to me on a flash drive. Make sure you use Microsoft Word for PC work or Pages if on a Mac.

This will be due on Nov. 1st in honor of All Saints Day. 25 points will go on the 2nd marking period but you can turn it in at any time.
