All Saints

Day
Dear Parents,

Your child will be presenting a

firsthand report about the saint
that they have chosen. These
reports will be given in first person
the day of the All Saints Mass. Reports
should be written in paragraph form and
should be 5-10 sentences in length. The
following information should be included
in their reports:

The name of the Saint

When and where they were born
Background Information on their upbringing (family, ect).
What works they did while they were alive
What types of ministries did they start or inspire? (If
applicable)
What they accomplished in their lives.
Why you chose this saint
When they died and the age they were at death.

You may use the saint information sheets I gave you along with
any other research you do on your own to complete your report.
Students should practice reading their reports at home with you! If
you have any questions, please contact me. Have fun with this
assignment.

Saint Report due on 10/31/17.

Love,

Mrs. Radcliffe
 All Saints Day

The second grade has traditionally planned the mass for All Saints
Day, which the school will celebrate this year on Tuesday, November 1. Part
of this mass includes singing the Litany of the Saints, during which time we
have a procession of saints. While each child has signed up as a saint and
needs to do a firsthand report of the saint. Children were taught about
various saints and chose saints in class. I will send home an information
sheet about that saint.

Over the years, Mrs. Smith assembled a box of suitable robes, costumes,
etc. to be used each year for this mass. I will have this box of costumes in
the classroom, and you are welcome to come in and borrow anything that you
need, or you may come up with your own costume. I will help the students
pick out their costumes during school and you will be able to come in and
look at them next week! Some of the costumes are pretty generic, and can
be adapted for another saint. If you choose a saint not in the costume box,
you may need to put together a costume.

I have costumes for the following saints:

St. Francis of Assisi St. Catherine of Sienna

Mary St. Therese of Lisieux
St. Michael the Archangel St. Bridget
St. James St. Monica
St. Joseph St. Catherine
St. Lucy St. Agnes
St. Veronica St. John Eudes
St. Anne St. John the Baptist
St. Clare St. Nicholas
Saint Mother Theresa St. Christopher
St. Peter St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
St. Josephine St. Patrick
St. Elizabeth of Hungary St. Joan of Arc
St. John Paul II St. Maxamilian Kolbe
St. Thomas Aquinas St. Rose of Lima
St. Peter St. Faustina Kowalska
St. Andrew
St. John Bosco

Thanks,
Miss Williams

Please fill out the bottom of this form and send it in with your child. Saints will be
picked on a first come first serve basis, but I will try to make sure that each students gets
one of their top three. Each year, we have four very important saints: Holy Mary, St.
James, St. John Eudes and St. Leo. If you would like to fill one of these roles, please
place it on your list below:
