Nov 18-22

My deepest apologies.  I'm sorry that this was not posted earlier. 

Curriculum Update:
Math - Telling Time. This can be tricky for some kids.  A couple of things you can do to help out at home is to count by 5's, use an analog clock to tell time or use flash cards (home made or purchased at the dollar store) and practice saying times in a variety of ways (6:30 or half past six)
Language Arts - New spelling words given last week.  We will focus on a pattern for two weeks.  This week is short a and e sounds.  Also we have been journaling a lot about peace.  Our end in mind is to create a peace poem. 


Monday
  • Lock Down practice - your child did an AMAZING job!
  • Friday letters were due back
Tuesday
  • Library today
  • Faces of Fire - A Parks Canada presentation
  • Parent Council was tonight.  The next meeting will be Dec 17.  
Wednesday
  • Afterschool famiily skating.  Kids must be with an adult.  All students must have a helmet and adults that choose to join us on the ice must also wear a helmet.  There will be five sessions in total. 
Thursday
  • School in the morning.
  • Parent Teacher Interviews this afternoon.  I look forward to meeting with you and your child.   I still have some times left on Thursday and my goal is to meet with all of you. 
Friday
  • No school for students.  This is a day set aside for interviews as well.  Due to a family funeral, I will not be in the school today.
