Student Led Conferences, Early Dismissals and other information

Good morning families,

Here is some information for the rest of this week.

Student Led Conferences- Wednesday May 4

A reminder that tomorrow afternoon/ evening is Student Led Conferences. Confirmation times were sent home last week with the first set of conferences beginning at 2:15pm and the last conferences ending at 7:00pm. Please enter and exit through the classroom’s outside door.

Please read through the parent information sheet which gives more information and helpful tips for the conference. Division 12 is very excited! There will be time to go through your child’s portfolio, rotate through stations and time to enjoy a slideshow!

Early Dismissals – May 4 &5

On both Wednesday May 4 and Thursday May 5 there will be early dismissals. Pick will be at 2pm instead of 3pm on those days.

Moving (Back to our original classroom)

We are aiming to move back into our classroom Thursday May 5. We will start the day in Ms. Kal’s room and sometime throughout the day we will be moving back to our homeroom. Pick up on Thursday will be back in our original classroom. I will let all families know if that changes.

Thank you,

Ms. Toor

 

Book Fair and May Calendar

Good afternoon families!

Tomorrow the Book Fair is replacing our library time.  I will be putting an envelope in your child’s planner pocket for money.

Please put the money your child is bringing to the book fair into that envelope and put the total on the front of the envelope. In the morning I will collect the envelopes and keep it locked up in my cupboard until I give the envelopes to Ms. Ho.

As Library is my regularly scheduled prep time, I will not be going to the book fair with the class and this system will make things easier for Ms. Ho to support each student.

We have two times to attend the book fair- Tuesday May 3 and Tuesday May 10.

Thank you kindly for your support,

Ms. Toor

Below is our May Classroom Calendar

 

Classroom Painting

Good afternoon families!

I hope you all had a restful and festive long weekend.

Mr. LaPlante let me know Thursday after school that painting is supposed to begin sometime tomorrow (Tuesday April 19) during our school day.

We will start off our day in our classroom and sometime during the day we will be moving the materials we will need for the next couple weeks into the classroom next door. Please be prepared to pick up your child in the classroom next door tomorrow at 3pm.

**If anything changes I will send out another blog post to families 

Thank you all for your flexibility and patience during this time. Painting should last approximately two weeks if things go ahead as planned. During the duration of the painting we will be in the classroom next door and will not have access to our room until it is finished.

Ms. Toor

 

Student Led Conference Form

Good afternoon Division 12 families!

In addition to some wet socks coming home today from all the rain and hail… your child is also coming home with a Student Led Conference Form in their planner pocket.

Please fill out the form, select a time that works for your family and return the form in your child’s planner by Wednesday April 20.

Once I receive all the forms I will send it back confirming your scheduled time.

Student Led Conferences will be held on Wednesday May 4.

Thank you,

Ms. Toor

P.S. The painting in our classroom has been delayed by a couple days… Maybe the end of this week … Stay tuned! 

April Updates and Calendar

Good afternoon Division 12 families!

I am back to work after a few days off! Sorry for the delay regarding the calendar and monthly updates.

Classroom/ School Painting

Our classroom is next to be painted in the school. We are not sure which day they will begin but it could be at the end of this week or the beginning of next week. During the painting, we will be using Ms. Kal’s classroom which is right next to ours. I will send a blog post when we will be moving there as pick up and drop off will be there too. Please see the map if you are unsure which is Ms. Kal’s classroom.

Outdoor Classroom

Please dress for the weather each day …(ex. Rain coats, ball caps/ hats if its sunny etc.) If you have not brought back your spare change of clothes for the cubbies please bring them back as soon as you can.
