**__ Reminders and Notes __** The first graders have been very busy learning about addition and subtraction, understanding the difference between fiction and information text, praying the Rosary, experimenting with the sense of Hearing in the Science Lab, and writing great sentences about different kinds of storms! On Friday's we've been writing in our Journals about the new things we learn in school each week! Your little one will bring their book home to share with you later this week! :) St. Hilary Parish is having 40 Hours Devotion until tomorrow evening. If possible please try to attend this special event with your family. Sorry for the mix up! It wasn't last week!
 * *** **** The first grade will bring home several tests in a test folder this week. ** **//__Please sign each test, review the contents with your child, and return the tests to school the next day in the same folder__//.** Thanks! ***


 * The penny race continues!!! ** **First Grade was in the lead last week! Woohoo!** Let’s see if we can keep up the good work! Please gather those old pennies and send them to school. P.S. We get a pizza party and a dress down day if we collect the most. Thanks again.

Please continue to work on the **All Saints project** with your child. The finished project is due on Wednesday, October 26. If anyone needs to borrow a book about saints I have several to share.

All //__First in Math__// usernames and passwords were sent home last week. //__First in Math__// is a fun and educational way for your little one to practice his / her math skills online! We've had a different "Player of the Day" each day! That's awesome!!

Please remember to return **library books on Thursday** and for your little one to have **2 sharpened pencils** each day! Also**, please be sure to initial your child’s behavior calendar in the red study folder each night**.

Finally, if any crafty parent would like to come in this **Friday** we would love to begin working on our **class photo album**. You would need to interview the children in our class and help them decorate a page in our special album….it’s really easy and fun! Let me know if you are interested.

Let's enjoy this fall weather! Theresa Anstotz
