Hi Everyone,

We had a fun and busy week in Division 8!

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*we had a terrific walking field trip to Save-On-Foods on Wednesday and learned a lot about the 4 food groups and how many servings we should be having from each one
*a big thank you to Wyatt, Chloe, Collette and Neveah's moms for volunteering to accompany us on this outing
*we are continuing to study nutrition so if you have any 'food' flyers, please send them in for an upcoming activity
*we will be starting our spelling program on Monday.  You will be receiving an important letter in your child's planner which explains the program we will be using.  We realize that the words on the list may appear quite easy for some children but we will be doing a variety of activities around these (adding prefixes, suffices, defining, looking for word patterns etc.) and will also have surprise 'Bonus' words each week that follow the same pattern
*We will be starting 'Club Red' on Wednesday.  Students will be expected to read every day for the month of February and parents will need to sign each day as it is completed.  There will be a big school wide celebration at the beginning of March and there will be an opportunity for prizes to be won for those who participate.  There is also the possibility of winning a class pizza party if all of the calendars are signed/coloured/returned at the end of the month.
*twin day was a big success today, we had some twins, triplets and even one set of quadruplets!
*I will be posting a class list on the blog next Friday so that your child will have ample time to complete them for our class party. I will also include the details of that celebration.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone!

Amanda Roberts
