February 5/20

Hi Everyone,

As I've mentioned on previous posts, February is a very busy month!

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*This Friday we will be having flashlight reading.  Please ensure that your child comes to school with a working flashlight and a book they would like to read with a friend.  Please label items you are sending in.
*February 20th will be the 100th day of school.  This year all of the primary staff are asking students to wear 100.  For example, a t-shirt with 100 pom poms or google eyes, wear 100 bracelets or hair ties.  We have done this in the past and it's been a lot of fun!  Thank you for your support with this, we are hoping to have a small parade to share our creations with the other primary classes who are participating
*Thank you to Keana's family for donating some books to our class library.  They are being enjoyed!
*Thank you to Noah's mom for volunteering to bake 24 cupcakes for our Dr. Seuss celebration at the beginning of March
*I am looking for a parent volunteer to come in and paint (with 2 kids at a time in the hallway) to create the background for an upcoming art project.  Please email me at Amanda_roberts@sd42.ca with your availability if you are able to help.  Thank you!
*our class will have our 'Sexual Health Information' session.  Detailed information has been sent home via the parent portal.
*there will be no spelling next week due to it only being a 3 day week for students
*please note: the PINK PARADE on February 26th will now be at 9:00 (not between recess and lunch as I originally said). Thank you!

REMINDER:  We will be celebrating Valentines Day on Wednesday, February 12th (including handing out Valentines/Our class party) due to the NID and holiday on the 13th and 14th.
