Miss Chrissy s Treasure Chest Each week, the students will have a chance to fill out a card and enter it to a drawing that will allow them to visit my treasure box for a prize. The questions, will be review of the past lessons, might include questions about what took place at mass etc Students need to fill these out on their own. No teacher or teen aides assistance please. I will review them and only submit drawings of the cards that are filled out correctly. Drawings will be random. Once the cards are completed, please have your teen aides return them to my desk for review. I will stop by with the box to your classroom should a student be selected. EXAMPLE: Name: Grade: Room #: 1) Which apostle was our First Pope? 2) What color are we using for this time in the Liturgical Year? 3) What are the 2 parts of the Mass?
