Hi Everyone,
We are enjoying our last week of May and are just wrapping up our Body/Nutrition Unit. We are excited to learn about insects and other interesting crawlers. I am sure your children have told you that we were very fortunate to watch our caterpillars form their chrysalis and grow into healthy painted lady butterflies that we were able to release last week.
Updates/Reminders/Thank you's
*Just a reminder to please send in the library raffle ticket money (or tickets if you are unable to sell them)
*Hot lunch is tomorrow
*Parent volunteer appreciation invitations were sent home on Friday. If you did not receive one and you did volunteer, please let me know. Thank you! The tea is Thursday, June 13th from 1:00-2:00 in the Multipurpose Room
*We are finished spelling for the year. Duotangs can now stay at home.
*Nutrition booklets are coming home this week. The last page is homework and should be completed at lunch time on Saturday or Sunday. Thank you!

*A big thank you to our PAC and any parents who contributed to our staff appreciation lunch on Tuesday. We really appreciated this thoughtful gesture.
*Friday we will be having a 'Yogurt Bar' in our class between recess (10:30 and lunch 12:00) if anyone available to volunteer and help with prep and distribution. We are using money from a grant we received from the BC Dairy Foundation

Hi Everyone,
I hope you all enjoyed a great long weekend. It is hard to believe that we will be heading into June soon!
*If you are unable to sell the library raffle tickets, please send back the unsold tickets. Mrs. Holmes has lots of great ideas for our library so we are hoping that everyone is able to sell their tickets but she will pass them on to other students if you are unable to.
*This Friday, May 24th is Class Picture Day (rain or shine)
*Our class party will be on June 25th. At this point I only have 2 volunteers who are bringing treats: Josh-fruit plate and Declan-chips or pretzels. Is anyone else willing to bring in treats? Please notify me by email if you are able. amanda_roberts@sd42.ca. Thank you!
*This will be the last week for students to take out library books, all books are due back to the library asap as there will be an inventory done during the month of June
*We will be creating an art project to help decorate our school. Please send in a rock about the size of your child's fist. We will be writing a 'connections' word on it and decorating the rock with acrylic paints so smoother rocks are preferred.
*Over the next week, your child will be given a food poem (chosen by his/her group) to practice/present to the class. Please read this poem nightly with your child. Thank you!
*Students will have the opportunity to trade in their mystery bag this week. Please ensure that it comes to school each day. Thank you!
*Important Dates for the remainder of the year...
May 30th-PAC hot lunch (the last one of the year)
June 4th-Student Stars Assembly
June 6/7th- TCBY and Chips
June 11th-Volunteer Tea (Mrs. Watkins will send out more information)

Hi Everyone,
We had a great morning at Me-n-Ed's pizza today. Your children will be able to tell you all of the steps in making a pizza, the food groups involved and the cool machines that there are in a pizza parlour. They really enjoyed their time there and (of course) they loved the pizza!
*everyone should have brought home some sheets about our upcoming 'Scientist of the Day'. We begin next week so please check your child's backpack to see when they are presenting. If the day I have chosen for your child isn't going to work, please contact me and I will try to reschedule. Parents do not need to attend, in fact I encourage the students to present independently as it is great practice for them. Don't worry if your child picks an experiment that someone else has already done, we learn something new each time. Have fun!
*I have been replacing 'Mystery Bags' for students who are ready, please ensure that all 5 books remain in your child's bag when they are not reading them. Students will not receive a new bag until all 5 books are returned/replaced
*our leadership students are doing a movie fundraiser during lunch on May 17th. Students can bring a can of food or a donation if they would like to attend
*please ensure that your child is practicing his/her poems for our presentation at the assembly Monday morning at 8:45am in the gym
*thank you to our parent drivers for our trip to Me-n-Eds pizza. It was only 15 minutes from here and everyone loved the pizza!
*the hot dog day on May 10th has been cancelled
Have a great weekend, everyone!
