We haven't even reached our lesson about the Plague or Black Death as it was called, but you kiddo's have been dropping like flies. So this week, we'll try to get all of you caught up on missed work and make sure everyone is on the road to "Health-ville". Make-up tests and work will be given during recess time. That song you learned in music class "Soap and Water" isn't a joke, wash your hands! I want you to share funny jokes with each other, not germs!
Now for History! We read and discussed a little about the work of St. Thomas Aquinas. Who can remember what his greatest work is called? I'll give you a hint, its a Latin term.
Tuesday, we will be creating a timeline about St. Thomas's life and follow all of his travels on a map. You will be reading the packet: St. Thomas Aquinas: Project-Reading and Timeline
Wednesday, we will be learning the hymn text "O Sautaris Hostia" which was written by St. Thomas. We'll read it aloud in Latin first, then turn the page and read it in English. From the English translation, we will have some questions to answer.
Thursday, you might have a quiz over your St. Thomas material, but I didn't just tell you that. Be prepared! We will spend the rest of our time discussing this lesson.
Friday, no test in History, we will begin our lesson over Marco Polo (not the game you play in the pool), one of the great explorer's!
