Reminders:

- Wednesday is Ash Wednesday and we will be attending Mass with the whole school.
- Thank you for helping your child work on their Bible readings! I know that for a Grade One student it can be challenging to practice all three, so please use your judgement as to what your child can handle. Reading abilities at this time of the year are varied and so some children might spend this time learning one, while others are able to practice all three. To move onto the next level, children will need to know all three

Speech Arts
Speech Arts is just around the corner! It is a time for students to get "comfortable" reading and presenting in front of their class. For Grade 1's it will be a little different than the older grades.
This year I am asking all students to present a poem and read a bible passage.
Poetry:
The poem does not need to be very long. I would like each student to learn and memorize a poem that he/she presents to the class for 10-30 seconds. You know your child best so help him/her choose a poem that they can learn and memorize. Shel Silverstein is a great poet/author that has easy to learn and short poems. Poems need to be selected by Feb. 16. Please send me a copy via email or in your child's homework folder. Start learning the poems immediately and practice with your child saying the poem title and author before reciting the poem.
Bible Reading:
There are three passages that students will need to practice. Your child does not need to memorize these - they should be practiced until your child can read them comfortably. Practicing one reading a night is good (and counts as part of their nightly reading). The passages were sent home today.
