Bonjour!

The French Cafe was a roaring success!  Thank you very much to all the friends and families that came out to watch all the work work that the students at SJA have been doing these last few months. I was very proud to see the children in action!  Other than the French Cafe, we had some time this morning for our weekly spelling tests.  The marked tests will be going home with all the children tonight.  We also had some time to work on our new unit of inquiry.  We had a class discussion about endangered and extinct animals and how the loss of these animals affects the earth.  The children then completed a fun activity to help them explore a few endangered species.  Ask your child tonight to explain to you the difference between extinct and endangered.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, and re-write any incorrect spelling words ten times each (including bonus word).

Important information:  
Information for SJA Summer Camps are now available.  SJA offers a range of camps over the summer months with a variety of themes ranging from karate camps, to writing camps to traditional summer camps programs.  Please contact the school for more information about these exciting programs.

If your child is part of the SJA choir, please make sure they are practicing the choir song at home.  You can find the song lyrics athttp://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/theparenttrap/doyoubelieveinmagic.htm and play the song for them at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKyGyH9mWHk.


Have a great weekend!

Mrs. Nelson
