Student Led Conferences
Wednesday April 15th is Nelson’s annual Student Led Conferences. I cannot wait as it’s my favourite time of the year in our classroom. I love to see the pride and excitement the kids have when sharing their work with their family.
Please come visit our classroom between 2:05-4:00 or 5:00-6:00. The classroom will be closed for a dinner break from 4:00-5:00. You will be read to, presented work, shown around the classroom and asked to play a game. Please come ready to celebrate your child’s achievements.
This will be completely led by your child and not a time to discuss their progress. I would be happy to meet with you at another time to discuss their report card or behaviour.
If possible, please do not bring younger children so the focus can be on the child sharing.
Thank you! Any questions? Please ask! stephanie.watt@burnabyschools.ca
I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!

Flat Stanley Adventures Begin!
We have been learning about continents and other map skills in class. Among them, we are learning how to locate our province, our country and other countries on maps and globes. The character Flat Stanley has inspired our current project. Click on the picture above to learn more!
Division 8 & 9 students have created their very own Flat Stanleys that are ready for adventure! There are a couple different ways they can travel…
Mail Flat Stanley Around the World
Your Flat Stanley can be sent to a friend or relative that lives in another province, or one that lives in another country! Students are bringing home a letter that is sent along to explain the activity to friends or family members and one for them to return to our class. The recipient will be asked to return the traveller after a week or so with pictures of the Flat Stanley somewhere in their area and a postcard or artifact/souvenir if they are able. They may also email me the photos to stephanie.watt@burnabyschools.ca
Take Flat Stanley on Your Family Vacation
Take pictures of your family with your Flat Stanley at landmarks and recognizable locations during your travels and if you are able to purchase a postcard and/or small souvenir it is definitely welcome! When you return email the photos to Ms. Watt @ stephanie.watt@burnabyschools.ca
When the Flat Stanleys return to school, we will plot their whereabouts on our map and share the information received with each other.
Our Flat Stanley project will continue throughout the year and we are all very excited about what we’ll learn about our world. Our own travels; letters, pictures and artifacts from our friends and family; and lastly through the research we do in the classroom, we will learn about the different places our Flat Selves travel to.
To see examples of other Flat Stanleys please click HERE to see a video made by the Canadian creator of the Flat Stanley Project!
