September 25th

We have had a small class for most of the week.  But I'd like to thank all parents for taking this pandemic seriously and keeping their children home when they are sick.  It's so important that we are extra careful this year!   This week your children were busy making patterns, started our All About Me unit, started writing,  learned and wrote about Terry Fox and Wednesday afternoon we did our Terry Fox run in the rain!  

Reminders and New Information:

*No School on Monday, September 28th for students.  

*Green verification forms went home this week, please read it over, make applicable changes, sign and return

*As of today we are now eating snack (when possible) before recess and then in the first 20 minutes of their lunch.  They will then wash hands and go out to play the last 20 minutes. 

*Planners $7.00 - please pay on parent portal or send in the cash in a labelled ziplock 

*Consent forms (walking and media) need to be completed on the portal

*Scholastic was sent home today!  It is now online and will be delivered directly to your home! Be sure to include my Teacher Class Code - RC250266.  Thanks to Tatum and her mom for organizing these Scholastic forms for us!  

*Owl Kids magazine:  If anyone is interested in getting Owl or Chickadee magazines for their children please check this out.  

 

*Masks were sent home this week, could you please label your child's with their name or initials and have a labelled container or bag to store it in.  Thanks Caleb for thinking how important it is to put our names on with them all being the same!  Students are encouraged to wear their masks when they go to see Mrs. Holmes for Library, Dr. Saul for music and when they are reading or working closely with me or an EA.  

*Please have an extra hoodie or sweater, with the doors and windows open plus the breeze this week the room was a bit chilly at times but we need these open for air circulation.

*We are playing a game called Name Boogle with your child's first and last name.  When it is your child's special helper day they will bring home a large blue piece of paper with all the words that the class found.  If you as a family can try to find more, total the number and then return the paper and we'll keep it for their memory books.  The students are getting much better at finding and making words.  

Have a great long weekend!
