It has been a very rewarding start to the year with the new class of Division 10, Grade 2\/3.\u00a0 Everyone has settled nicely into the classroom setting and students are becoming comfortable with the routines and expectations of the space.\u00a0 We began September by sharing the importance of being a Clinton Star<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 S<\/strong> – Stay Safe T<\/strong> – Take Responsibility A<\/strong> – Act Respectfully R<\/strong> – Remember to be Inclusive.\u00a0 So many \"\"<\/a>are shining brightly in Room 15.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Terry Fox Run<\/strong><\/em> raised not only an awareness of what it means to be courageous, resilient and persevere but supported cancer research with generous donations from Clinton families.<\/p>\n

The changing of the seasons brought all of the grade 2\/3 classes to Ron McLean Park for an Autumn Equinox Celebration<\/strong><\/em> on Friday, September 22.\u00a0 We shared stories, connected with nature, learned about the Harvest Moon and acknowledged the space and place that we teach, learn and live on. It was wonderful to see the 5 classes gather together under one Sun.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our experience then encouraged us to write a reflection related to saying Good-bye to Summer and Hello to Autumn<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 We also created Fall leaves that represented student curiousities and we hung them on our Tree of Learning.\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The National Day of Truth and Reconciliation<\/strong><\/em> was acknowledged by an assembly on Thursday, September 28.\u00a0 Students wore their orange shirts and colours and took a step forward with their understanding and knowledge while never forgetting the past, remembering that Every Child Matters<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Division 10 worked with clock buddies to create Feathers of Hope<\/strong><\/em> and then made their own personal orange shirts sharing why they matter. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>With October now upon us, this is a good time to maintain the expectations set out for the students of Room 15.\u00a0 Please make sure the planner is brought to school each day and that as often as possible, the planner is read each evening.\u00a0 Library days are Wednesday and one of the Clinton Star rules is to take responsibility for returning library books on time. As the cooler, wetter days of Autumn set in, please note that hoodies are not jackets and students will often be outside, rain or shine.\u00a0 Math Flights have taken off and Word Work will soon be coming home.\u00a0 We will be starting our Reading Stamina practice in class and students will then be encouraged to link what they have learned at school to their reading experiences at home.\u00a0 Students also have 2 poems tucked into their hippocampus and are working on their third classroom carpet poem.\u00a0 With Brain Ahead morning activities as well as making use of tools and strategies to support neurological development, the students of Division 10 have a goal of learning 20 poems this year.\u00a0 Go Team Go!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We will also be welcoming 2 student teachers from UBC to Clinton Elementary.\u00a0 We know they will enjoy their learning journey here.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you, parents, for taking the time to meet with me during our Parents As Partners opportunity.\u00a0 Please make use of this blog site to connect with the many learning adventures that Division 10 will participate in.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A very happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.<\/p>\n
