It is getting cold out. We ask that all of the students bring hats and mittens or gloves. Once the snow starts, students will need snow boots and snow pants. We go outside several times per day as long as the wind chill is above 5 degrees.

Thank you to all of the parents who took the time to come to Parent/Teacher Conferences last week! We want you to know that we are so grateful for your support as we finish the first quarter of the school year. Our mission is to have balanced students: who are confident of mind, academics and Catholic faith. Thank you for working on virtues at home and sending your children to school ready to learn and grow in faith and virtue.

Preschool News: Last month in October down in preschool we had fun learning all about apples and pumpkins. We learned about the life cycle of each and how red, green and yellow apples taste. We also got to sample some pumpkin seeds. Also in October we took a trip to Carpenter Farms with the kindergarten class. That was so much fun and I would like to send a special THANK YOU to all of the parents who went with us and helped with the trip. For religion in October, we talked about Guardian Angels and Creation. We learned that everyone has a special guardian angel with us always to help guide and protect us. We have even been working on the Guardian Angel Prayer. For creation we learned all about how God created the world and everything in it for us. We made our very own Creation books to help with this lesson. We’ve still been working on the virtues of Self-Control and Obedience but we also started talking about Prayerfulness and Respect. Also in October we started working on the letters of the alphabet. So far we have worked on the letters L and E.

********************

November is going to be just as busy learning all new letters, virtues, and we will be talking about how we are very special because God made us. We will also be learning about the very first Thanksgiving and about the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indian tribe who helped the Pilgrims. Right before thanksgiving break we will be coming together with 5th and 6h grade and recreating the very first thanksgiving feast. Please be on the lookout for more information about this wonderful event as it gets closer.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Parents, as the weather has started to get colder and snowier PLEASE make sure your child is coming to school everyday with a hat, winter coat, and a pair of MITTENS. Mittens are MUCH EASIER to put on their hands than gloves are. Also, if you would please bring in a pair of snow pants and boots to leave at the school until their last day of the week that would be helpful. Even when there isn’t snow on the ground we will still wear snow pants outside to help add an extra layer of warmth in the cold days ahead.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me any time. jdehn@sacredhearthudson.org

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

The students are working on the scientific method with a gummy bear experiment that includes vinegar, baking soda, salt and water. They are learning about volume and density.

The SHS Parent Group will be collecting hats, gloves, mittens (in a variety of sizes for adults and children) and blankets to serve our community beginning on November 1st. Donations can be dropped off at the school or the church. We hope this is a fun project for the children to learn the gift of giving and being thankful this Thanksgiving season!
