Hello Parents, 

Dates to remember: 

Sept. 23: Homecoming:: Early Out & Spirit Day 

Oct. 5: Picture Retakes 

Here is what we are doing in class: 

 The 8th grade enjoyed the day with a prayer reflection.

 Iowa vs Iowa State picture ;) 

 The 6th grade working on their map skills with a game of coordinate battleship. 

The 7th grade playing a game about sin.

8th grade: 

In religion the 8th grade is learning about the hierarchy of the church through the pope, bishops, and priests. They just finished with a presentation on the 12 Apostles. In a few weeks they will begin design and constructing their churches. Now would be a good time to start saving recyclables such as cardboard, Kleenex boxes, etc... 

7th grade:  

The 7th grade is in the midst of presenting their ancient civilization presentations. On Tuesday they will be having a rap battle. :) In religion they finished learning about the sacrament of Baptism and will continue on to the difference between venial and mortal sin. 

6th grade: 

The 6th grade wrapped up their first chapter in social studies that included the continents, map skills, major bodies of water, coordinates, equator, and so much more! In religion they are using the Bible to find examples of how people said Yes! to God.
