April 12/18

Hi Everyone,

Thank you for the emails saying the post did not show up.  It has completely disappeared so I am now at home redoing it and hoping I remember everything!

*Please send in $10 for the memory books and $1 for the special art project if you have not already done so

*Thank you to all of the parents who helped make our trip to Save-On-Foods a success.  The students loved using their mapping skills

*We are waiting on some final information regarding our field trip to the Me and Eds pizza restaurant on May 1st but for now if you could please 'Save the Date' that would be much appreciated.  We will need parent drivers to assist on this trip

*April 18th is 'Crazy Hair Day'

*PAC TCBY Frozen Yogurt treat day on April 17/18 at lunch.

*Also Div. 9 & 10 are planning to present our body songs at our next assembly, Monday, May 6th.  Parents are welcome to attend!  Please practice these poems/songs at home as we hope to have them memorized (they are in your child's 'Poetry and More' duotang)

*Mystery Bags went home today.  Each student has a bag with 5 books inside of varying levels, both fiction and non-fiction.  These are high-interest books that were provided by our district and the students loved them last year!  If your child is an emergent reader and you would like to continue with some levelled books as well please just email me at amanda_roberts@sd42.ca  Raz-Kids is also a great option for the children to access books at their reading level. As I mentioned earlier it is crucial for students to continue to read regularly to further strengthen their reading skills.  

*Just a reminder as well of our IXL program - a great place to practice and review math skills.  This is a great resource which unfortunately we are not using enough!  Remember these can be accessed by the link on this blog.

*We will be painting with acrylic paints with our buddy class for the next few Fridays

Have a great weekend!
