Week of May 3, 2010

Welcome Parents!
Congratulations to all who made their First Holy Communion this weekend! Happy May! This week St. Jerome is trying out a new lunch system. The students will play the first 20 minutes of lunchtime and eat during the last 20 minutes. Some school districts have implemented this system and it has shown to increase learning and decrease visits to the health office in the afternoon hours.

In Reading, we will be working on the long e sound as well changing words from singular to plural. We are continuing to work on 3-digit addition and subtraction in Math and we will complete our chapter on Thursday with the Ch. 9 test. In English, we will have a test on Tuesday on adverbs. In Social Studies, we will begin working on our Career Reports, so please make sure your child returns their outline on Tuesday along with one other resource that they can use (i.e. book, article, etc)!
