Mrs. Yarusso- 5A

Greetings to all students, parents and guardians of Saint Andrew School, 

Thank you for your support and understanding as we work through unusual circumstances at this time. During the next two weeks, students should regularly check my web page and Google classroom pages for lessons, activities or assignments. I ask students to take time to complete their assignments to the best of their ability as this is how attendance will be accounted for during the distance learning process. 

As questions or concerns arise, students and parents can email me at byarusso@saintandrewschool.com. I will check my email Monday through Friday from 10 - 11am, 2 - 3pm, and then again from 6 - 7pm.  

7th Grade Math: Students will review a Google slide presentation to explain a new concept, and then complete a practice page assigned in Foundations of Algebra Practice Book. 

6th Grade English/Language Arts: Students were given a long-term assignment to focus on comprehension of fictional text. I will provide regular Google slide presentations on the specific literary devices so the students can complete the three required projects. As distance learning is extended, I will provide other assignments that can be accessed through publishers' websites.

5th Grade Social Studies: Students will be asked to read an informational article from Readworks.org which will support their understanding of European Exploration in the Western Hemisphere. We began this unit last week so students will continue to build their background knowledge during these two weeks.

5th Grade Religion: Students will be asked to read and complete activities in their Spirit of Truth Workbook. We began the unit on the Sacrament of Confirmation and students will continue to learn about this Sacrament of Initiation.   

As questions or concerns arise, students and parents can email me at byarusso@saintandrewschool.com. I will check my email daily from 10 - 11am, 2 - 3pm, and then again from 6 - 7pm.  As always thank you for your support.
