February 3/22

 Hi Everyone,

I hope you and your families are all well.  I wanted to thank you all for your continued support in keeping your children home when they are feeling unwell.  I really do appreciate your ongoing diligence. Thanks so much! 

*A reminder that tomorrow we will be joining in a Global Day of Play.  Students are welcome to bring one non-electronic game/toy from home (this is optional)

*Monday your child brought home a notice explaining that February is 'Club Red' and we are Reading Each Day.  This year is an olympic focus and we are all aiming for Gold level reading!  Please see the calendar on the back of the notice, this is where you will sign and your child will colour as they complete each day of reading.  It is also where you will find the weekly special events days.  I have asked the class to put their calendar on the fridge (with your permission) to help ensure they remember to read/complete the calendar each day.

*Next Wednesday, February 9th will be 'Flashlight Reading'. Please have your child bring a flashlight and favourite book to enjoy that day

*We have now sent out a parent portal payment request in the amount of $15.  The break down of this is $10 for the memory book we are creating in class and $5 for our 'Joyful Learning' opportunities (virtual guests/field trips).  Thank you in advance for your online payment via the parent portal.

We will be exchanging Valentine's Day cards on Monday, February 14th.  Here is a list of the students in our class so that everyone can be included:

Alexa, Luciano, Abinasee, Gianna, Sukhtej, Ethan, Carys, Miya, Brielle, Hailee, Forrest, Maddex, Logan, Carson, Evelyn, Luca, Kinsley, Oskar, Sienna 

*We will be having our class party on Monday, February 14th.  If the following people could please send in treats on/before, Thursday, February 10th, that would be much appreciated.
