Chapter 15 and Sr. Marianne

This week we reviewed Chapter 9 from last week and the 10 Commandments. Then we began Chapter 15 about the Eucharist. In addition, we covered Chapter 13 about Advent. We were also lucky enough to have Sister Marianne come to talk to us about what Advent means.






You can check our our sticker charts and see how it is going!

This is the "Going to Church" sticker chart. Many kids are having fun with the competition and are excited to bring in copies of the bulletin to earn their stickers each session. Some kids I have seen at church and haven't remembered to bring in any bulletins....but those I have seen, I gave one sticker!


This is the homework sticker chart! Make sure you check your child's book and/or the website each weekend and encourage him/her to complete the homework.


Homework:
  • Review Chapter 15 with your family (we didn't finish it in class) and do the Review on pages 136 and 137. We didn't have a chance to flag the pages with post its in class.

Dec 19 Class

See the flyer below about the Session/Mass on December 19. The notes were supposed to go home on Saturday, November 7...however I forgot to pass them out. The information is here! Please let me know if you have any questions.

In place of our regular Hoover Session on December 19, the session will be a Family Mass at Church of the Holy Spirit from 9:00 to 10:00 (please note the shorter time). Mass will begin at 9:00. As this is a family event, children must be accompanied by an adult. Attendance will be taken.

There will be no one at Hoover on December 19.

Sorry this post is so late!

Last Saturday at class we reviewed Chapters 9 and 10 about the 10 Commandments. We talked about the meaning of the commandments and what it means to sin. We talked about what the 10 Commandments mean to us.

We watched a movie about the 10 Commandments called "The Original Top 10". It was one of Miss Stephanie's favorite movies as a child and we caught her singing along with all the songs!
