Grade Three Newsletter: Nov.8
October began with a surprise creatures visit from Mrs. McKinnon
and Mrs. Faltinsky. Grade Three became a
mini zoo of a live ferret, hissing
cockroaches, a chicken and a baby
Hedgehog named Chip. We had a chance to
hold skins shed from a snake. A baby
turtle’s shell, a coyote’s skull,
braided buffalo hair, a deer’s leg,
rabbit hair, a rattlesnake’s rattle and
an empty ostrich and bird egg. Koko was
a little worried to see a polar bear
claw. We had an awesome time learning
about t many different and unusual
creatures. Remember, we are God’s
caretakers of the earth’s living things.
The Guardian Angels came to visit us this month. We learned that
the Guardian Angels have groups trained
in many communities. Guardian Angels can
be all different ages. They help watch
for crimes in the neighborhood . They
have won National Awards for their
contributions.
Our class joined with the school in trying to raise money for
the American Heart Association. We got
people to sponsor us and donate money.
In Gym, we jumped our hearts out. We had
a fantastic time and we were proud to
part of the school serving people with
heart problems.
For Columbus Day, the third grade had five special students
who showed their pride in Sacred Heart
by marching in the city’s parade.
Congratulations to them for taking time
to make us proud!
We were very sad to hear our favorite secretary was injured and
in the hospital. We pray for Mrs. Orgera
every day and tried to cheer her up by
making cards for her. We miss her and
hope she’s back soon!
Our Halloween celebration began with a spectacular parade for
our families, the older Grade School
students and the High School too. We
loved those pumpkins dressed up in the
High School Office! The classroom party
was a blast with the cool games Miss
Francine made for us with prizes and
all. We had enough treats to feed the
Army and Navy! Thanks parents for your
generous donations.
Congratulations to the Diaz’s and to our newest Sacred Heart
family member – Karina Diaz born on
November 3!
Best of all, we are so excited and proud waiting to be enrolled
for our First Eucharist next Sunday.
Hope you can join us on our special day!
