I sent home a paper about a 'Thanksgiving Breakfast'. If you have not seen
it yet, please ask your child about it.
*****************************************************************************
If your child is absent, I would prefer that he/she get well rather than
worry about homework. They will be assigned a class buddy when returning to
school. They will go over anything that was missed and work will be made up
on a lenient schedule.

This excerpt was taken from "Today's Catholic Teacher", October 2009; Vol43,
Number2.....written by Susan Brooks-Young, a former teacher, now a
professional consultant and author:
At this time experts recommend limited or no use of calculators through grade
three, with careful planned use in grades four through six, and required use
beginning in grade seven. The majority of our students will not become
scientists, engineers, or mathematicians; however, they will be working in
business environments that increasingly rely on the use if techonolgy to
accomplish daily tasks.
