The Pinning Ceremony marks the half-way point of the 8th grade year. The pins will be blessed during a special ceremony on Wednesday, January 29th at the 9am school Mass.

 

Immediately following, is a brunch for 8th grade students, siblings, and their families.

We are asking our SRLA community to support our 8th grade by considering a contribution to their celebratory brunch.

 

Items can be dropped off with Danny on the morning of Wednesday, January 29th. Please note, all items must be nut free.

As always, thank you for your support of our students!

Inside the Classroom...

 The children in Mrs Carangelo's Second Grade have been having "snow" much fun exploring the cold and snow across the curriculum!

   In Math each student followed a math glyph code to represent data and create a personalized snowman!

   In Science the children examined thermometers and analyzed temperature changes and how the temperature effects changes in precipitation.

The students also located the polar habitats on the world map and compared and contrasted the Arctic region and Antarctica.

   In Language Arts the students are creating snow poems using descriptive language as they learn how adjectives can really make our writing so much more interesting!

   In addition to all this, the class has begun learning cursive writing as well as preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation!

   Second Graders are learning "snow" much!
