Week of February 7, 2016
This week our focus will be on Valentine’s Day and we will begin
a unit on the Lenten season of the Church. We will begin to discuss the Stations of the Cross. This is one of my favorite units to teach! The children get so engrossed learning about how Jesus died for us. Please be assured that it will be done at an age appropriate level for them.
Happy Birthday, Evan Samuel! February 11
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Jaskot! February 11
