Welcome to Mr. Valvo's Webpage!
September 22, 2018
We have concluded our first four weeks of the school year and I am extremely proud of what every students has accomplished at Our Lady of Fatima! There are so many wonderful things happening and it will only get better!
Just a few notes from my newsletter.
In Physical Education class we will continue to focus on teamwork activities for the older students and spacial awareness for the younger students. For our preschool classes we are focusing on loco-motor skills such as running and throwing.
Our Health classes continue to focus on self-respect, total optimum health, demonstrating good character and communication skills.
Computer classes are focusing on keyboarding. I have introduced to the students a website called Typing Club and they practiced various lessons in computer class. Everyone has their user names and passwords and are ready to do lessons at home or in school. The website is ourladyoffatima.typingclub.com if they want to complete lessons at home.
In Spanish students in 4th and 5th Grade were introduced to Duolingo, a program that promotes efficient foreign language studies that is headquartered in Pittsburgh! Students have their user names and passwords as well for the program. Please e-mail or call me if you would like to know more about Duolingo.
Congratulations to all soccer programs at Fatima! It's only been two weeks and I've seen so much success. JV and Varsity soccer have NO games this weekend but we resume the season Next Saturday. Junior Varsity will host a scrimmage game against Sts. Peter and Paul this Tuesday at 6:30 at the Hopewell High School Practice Field.
Bowling Club resumes on October 5, 2018. In order to bowl, students must turn in the permission slips and pay $6.00 for games and shoe rental.
Please check my website for classroom policies and dress codes. There are changes in policies and dress codes this year. You can also see them on the main OLOF website.
I may be reached at MrVOLOF@gmail.com or at the school number at (724) 375-7565 if you have any questions or if you would like me to add anything to the website.
God Bless,
