This Week is Literacy Week!

Hello families, 

I hope you had a great weekend. This week is Literacy Week! I wanted to let you know about the different school wide activities that will be happening this week. On Thursday, we will be doing a book swap. We are asking families to send in 1 school age book your child no longer reads. Every child will be bringing home a new book on Thursday. 

This weeks activities:

Tuesday, January 23

  • Dress up as your favourite book character day 
  • school-wide writing activity in the gym based on the anchor book “The Three Little Mittens” by Linda Bailey. Students are asked to bring a single/odd mitten or sock for this activity.

Wednesday, January 24

  • Pajama Day is on Wednesday
  • Cozy Reading/Fort Reading with buddy class. This is also pajama day and students can bring blankets, stuffies, and flashlights to cozy up and read together in creative ways.

Thursday, January 25

  • Book swap
  • Guest reader

Friday, January 26

  • Read-Your-Shirt Day (wear a shirt with any kind of writing on it)

Many Thanks!

Ms. Quin

 

 

 

School is closed today

Hello families,

I know our district website is slow due to high website traffic so I thought I’d post this here in case you didn’t see the announcement yet.

Have a great Snow Day!

Dress appropriately for the weather

Hello families,

This is just a reminder to dress your child appropriately for the weather. It is going to be very cold outside for the next week or so. If your child has a toque, snow gloves and snow pants/jacket please have them wear/bring them to school to keep them warm outside at recess and lunch.

Many thanks,

Ms. Quin

Re: Safe Bodies, Strong Kids (SBSK) Lesson 6: Keeping My Body Healthy and Clean

 

This week students learned that the only reason any adult, even an adult they know, should touch or look at their private parts is to keep them clean and healthy.

Some great books to read with your child at home:

Gorgonzola: A Very Stinkysaurus – Margie Palatini

The Pigeon Needs a Bath! – Mo Willems

Please feel free to connect if you have any questions about this week’s lesson.

Winter Concert

Hello families!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I wanted to let you know that our school will be having a winter concert on Wednesday, December 20th at 6:30pm. The children are super excited to come to school at night time! 🙂 We are asking that all children are dropped off at their classroom for 6:15pm. More details about tickets will be sent home soon (from the school/office email).

Many thanks,

Ms. Quin
