Math - We had our test today on Addition and Subtraction of Decimals. We will get our tests back early next week, and start our new unit tomorrow!

Ash Wednesday - Today we started Lent with an Ash Wednesday liturgy, and spent time together as a school to complete our Student Retreat. Over Lent, our school will have the following focuses:
  Prayer - We will gather as a class every Wednesday morning throughout lent to pray together.
  Fasting - Our class will have a "Fasting Friday" without lent. Our class discussed things we could do for our Fasting on Fridays, and decided on a "reduced water supply", where on Fridays during lent, we will each make due with just 1 water bottle for a day.
  Almsgiving - Our school is collecting items for Sanctuary, an non-profit that provides care and services to people in our community suffering from HIV/AIDS. They have asked for donations of the following items: Money, men and women's socks, men and women's pajamas, new men and womens underwear, face cloths and towels, hygiene products, gel pens pencil crayons and adult coloring books, receiving blankets for babies. If you have any donations throughout Lent, bring them to the pit in the mornings.

Health - Nutrition quiz on Friday. We will have time to study during class tomorrow.

ELA - Book reviews due on Friday.

Spelling - We got our Week 14 words today!
