Announcements

     We are presently studying about our fabulous 50 states.  Each student 
will be bringing home their state report which will be due on Monday, January 
25th.  The report consists of a poster which is double-sided.  Students are 
to research their state, fill in all information accurately, and be able to 
give an oral presentation of their findings.

     After Christmas break we will be creating a photo essay of a special 
event in our lives.  By January 4th students are to bring in 5 photos of a 
particular event important to them.

     In January we will begin studying about the Stations of the Cross.  Our 
fourth grade class will present The Living Stations of the Cross at 2 
performances on March 26th. This is a 19 act play with about a dozen songs 
which has been traditionally performed by the fourth graders over the past 
20+ years.  Your help and encouragement in memorizing parts is greatly 
appreciated.  More information will follow in January.
