Dear
Parents and Student This
has been a great school year. Many
thanks to you, who have sent your child to HTCS.
Your support this year has helped me in immeasurable ways.
I have enjoyed working with your children and hope to see you all
again next year. This will be
our last full week of school. Next
week we will just meet on Monday and Tuesday for a full day and a half day
on Wednesday. Please join us
on May 26 for Mass and awards ceremony.
I saw
a great improvement in most of the children’s division skills this week.
Some children have already begun summer break and quit doing
homework. Please check that
your child does math homework each night.
I usually give them time in class to begin the assignment.
Those who did poorly on division were the same children who did not
do homework consistently. This
is a new skill and requires practice.
The fact test this week will be on addition, subtraction,
multiplication and division. The
lessons test will be on all of Chapter 11.
This will include multiplication and division of higher numbers.
I am very proud of how hard both classes have worked this year.
In
Social Studies we will finish the book with a combined Chapter 9 and 10
test this Thursday, May 20. In
Chapter 9 we have studied nonprofit organizations and the importance of
being good citizens. In
Chapter 10 we will study map skills with a review of continents,
hemispheres, longitude and latitude lines, the equator and prime meridian.
In
Religion, we will test on Chapter 26, this is the last chapter we will
cover in this book. We have
covered all except one. The
test will be on Wednesday, May 19.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me through the school office or the school email dbarter@holytrinitycatholic.net.
