Our Valentine's Celebration will be tomorrow. Please have your child bring in their paper valentines tomorrow morning. Thanks so much to Neena, Brody, Natalie and Sukhraj for providing the treats for our celebration.
Please continue to talk to your child about when they are using or have used their courage. We are making a Courage Collection of examples of when they need to use their courage! Each week as part of our literacy program, we discuss why we feel courage is so important and explore courage in a great collection of books. We call it the "safe-risk zone" SAFE + RISK = LEARNING (e.g.) trying something new, taking risks, standing up for yourself or someone else)
Several classes including Div. 11 have made special paper hugs for a seniors home (Brody's Nona's lives there). A special thank you to Brody's mom for delivering these for us! The students were excited making these and we hope the hugs will bring some joy during this difficult time when everyone is missing hugging their loved ones.
Our outdoor journallying was chilly but also a great learning experience. Ms Penner asked the children to be 'Nature Scientists' and to choose one object in the forest to study closely, write and draw about it.
We won't do spelling next week being it is only a 3 day week for students. We'll continue with lesson 5 the following week.
Special dates for February:
