Dear Parents,
This week the first grade children will meet, what we call, their Prayer 
Partners.  These are the seventh grade children and they will accompany our 
first graders to Mass. They also take them to the Christmas Bazaar and help 
them shop, and at various other times during the year our Prayer Partners do 
projects with us.  So, just to keep it straight--eighth graders are Peer 
Helpers and help us with reading and Math and the seventh graders are Prayer 
Partners.

This week on Wednesday we are having our school Liturgy and the first grade 
will attend with their Prayer Partners.  You are most welcome to join us 
anytime our school shares Liturgy.  It will be at 10:30 on Wedneesday.

We have lots of great Thanksgiving activities planned for this week.  You'll 
see as they come home.  Hope each of you have a very Happy Thanksgiving and 
that you have time to make some memories with your family.
God bless,
Mrs DelQuadro

Dear Parents,
Believe it or not, other than ice cream day on Friday, we have a "normal" 
week and I am so grateful that the sick bug seems to have left our room and 
moved on.

Thank you to all the chaperones for our class trip.  We had a great day.  As 
one of the children told me "It was the funnest day of my whole life!"  You 
have to love first graders.

This week the children will bring home a new study sheet for Religion.  We 
wil have that test on Friday and a Math test on Thursday on addition and 
subtraction facts to 10.  There will be no Spelling test this week but I ask 
that the children still study the words.  They need to know them even if they 
are not tested on them this week.

Teddy Bear Day was a great success!  We did Teddy Bear Math, Teddy Bear 
Writing, and an acrostic with the words Teddy Bear.  We learned how the teddy 
bear got its name--from President Theodore Roosevelt-- and we even made a 
patriotic Teddy Bear.  The children did a wonderful job on writing and 
reading to the whole class about his/her teddy bear and where they got that 
particular one.  Some of the stories were very touching and it was a good day 
of learning and sharing.

Thanksgiving Day is just about upon us and you know what that means---the 
Ho Ho Guy is not far behind. (I don't dare meantion the 
C*R*S*M*S word this soon even though all the "C" things are in the malls 
already.)  I try to  save that season for after Thanksgivning.
Have a great week.
Mrs. DelQuadro

How far you go in life depends on your being
         tender with the young, 
         compassionate with the aged, 
         sympathetic with the striving, 
         and tolerant of the weak and the strong.  
         Because some day in life you will have been all of these.
