Practice 1: Using a Calendar
Pages 109-112

LANGUAGE ARTS

RELIGION
Work on Stations of the Cross book. Please do Station 8 – Jesus speaks to the women of Jerusalem.
Story: “The women of Jerusalem, and their children, come out to comfort and thank him. They had seen his compassion and welcomed his words of healing and freedom. He had broken all kinds of special and religious conventions to connect with them. Now they are here to support him. He feels their grief. He suffers, knowing he can’t remain to help them more in this life. He knows the mystery of facing the separation of death.”
Prayer: We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you, because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
SOCIAL STUDIES
Read Scholastic News, Welcome to Ireland, and answer questions 1-4
CHICKEN EGGS
Please let your child know that 4H picked up our eggs and incubators last Friday. They will keep them safe until they hatch since we can’t be at school to take care of them. We were sad to see them go but at least we know they are in good hands.

A Prayer for Peace of Mind
Fortify me with the grace of
Your Holy Spirit and give
Your peace to my soul that I
may be free from all needless anxiety,
solicitude and worry.
Help me to desire always that
which is pleasing and
acceptable to You so that
Your will may be my will.
-St Frances Xavier Cabrini
