May 31

TEACHER'S MESSAGE: 
If your child has a talent to share (at the end of June) - FORMS MUST BE IN BY MONDAY. - See pic below for info.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - ask your child if they have enough snacks/lunch for their day in school. I have been suppling several students with my own personal veggie snacks! I don't mind but then I also don't get my own veggies I need for the day. PLEASE take the time to pack your child's snacks with them and work together to pack a healthy lunch/snack and enough for the day. 

See links under May 31 below for what was covered this week in school. 

Awesome job this week to our latest Reader's Theatre Group - Oliver (narrator), Victoria, Kaden, Isabella and Evera!


LANGUAGE ARTS: 
We have been working on answering questions with a proper answer. Please see a sample in your child's agenda. Ask your child what constitutes a proper answer. 


MATH: 
Grade 1 & 2 have been working on weight/length/height and volume. Ask your child about it.


SCIENCE: 
We had a Science test on Thursday (a few didn't finish). Ask your child how it went and what parts were easy/challenging.  


GYM:   We had fun playing Drip, Drip, Drop. Ask your child how to play.
