Hi Everyone,
I hope that you and your loved ones are all well. I have cut and paste the information from a previous post as a reminder regarding protocols around Valentine's this year. This is at the bottom of the post. Thank you for following the guidelines that have been set by our district.
Updates/Reminders/Thank you's
*February 1st to the 12th there will be a scholastic book fair online (information was sent home via the parent portal)
*We will celebrate Valentine's Day on Friday, February 12th. Please send Valentines on that day
*February 15 is Family Day
*February 16th is a Non-Instructional Day
*February 17th Nature Journals (outside)
*February 24th is Pink Shirt Day/our Kindness Parade (students are encouraged to wear pink but please do not feel the need to buy something new)
*February 26th-100 Day!
***For 100 Day this year, I will be asking you to send in a project made by your child using 100 of something (lego, beads on a necklace, stickers on a poster etc.). Your child will present their project to the class on February 26th. Please send your child's project with them on that day. I am trying to keep our classroom clutter free to make it as easy as possible for our custodians to clean surfaces. Projects will be stored in your child's backpack/bag and sent home the same day. Please jot a note in your child's planner or email me if you would like me to send home a piece of construction paper for the project***
*this week we had an online field trip with a nutritionist from Save on Foods. We learned about foods that make us GLOW (fruits and vegetables), GO (grains/carbohydrates) and GROW (proteins/dairy)
*we also celebrated 'Groundhog Day' with stories extra math games. A copy of the two options is being sent home in the 'Poetry and More' duotang for you to play with your child over the weekend. Thank you!
*please continue to check your child's backpack for an orange spelling duotang on Wednesdays and Thursdays. They should be returned each day.
*please send in an extra set of dry clothes to keep at school, we will be going outside rain or shine every day
*some students received a 1/2 mark reduction in their quizzes today. I have been reviewing with the students each week that they need to practice at home using lower case letters. An alphabet is available to each student during the quiz and I am encouraging everyone to use this as a reference
*ear buds or headphones should also be sent in if you have not already done so as we use them during the ipad station (Reader's Workshop and Math). Thank you
*We will celebrate Valentine's Day on Friday, February 12th. If you are on the list to send snacks, please send them by Wednesday, February 10th
Valentine Cards
Valentine card exchange is permitted as long as the cards are basic paper cards (cards with pens, stickers or candies are NOT permitted at this time).
Please ensure that you follow these restrictions due Covid 19. If you have already purchased Valentine's with pens, stickers or candies, please remove these items before sending them to school. I apologize for any inconvenience.
We will continue with sharing the pre-packaged foods on the date of the party as those are still allowed. Please send them into the school by Wednesday, February 10th.
Thank you to the following people for sending in these snacks to share (we have 16 students currently attending school):
Zoe-chips
Callum-fruit snacks
Sam-Pre-wrapped sweet treat
Kaidjal-juice boxes
Here is the list of students who are currently attending school that your child can use for writing their Valentine's Day cards. Thank you for including everyone.
