"Then, taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he said the
blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; he also
divided two fish among them all. They all ate and were satisfied.”

Third Grade News
We are grateful for a memory filled first quarter. Enjoyed meeting the parents of our students at Parent-Teacher Conferences. Your
support makes us a good school. Students are enjoying delving into multiplication in Math. We will memorize all the tables. Singing the
tables helps. Science has us appreciating the beauty of our planet and that it is up to all of us to care for it. We are focusing on
possessives in grammar. Our faith continues to challenge us as we encounter Jesus in the Gospels and in our everyday lives. We are
focused on being thankful for the blessing that is St. Mark School.
