Nov. 24th

Div. 9 has had some excellent 'Great Canadian' presentations these last two weeks from Josh, Lily, Sienna, Jerome, Teresa, Alexis, Vienna and Ben!  These are up in our hallway for everyone to look at so remember to take a look when you are at the school.

The students seem to really enjoy learning about Canada.   We have done BC and all 3 prairie provinces so far.  At Reader's Workshop we are currently identifying all the provinces, territories and their capital cities.  A huge thank you to Kamryn and Vienna's mom who have been helping out during Reader's Workshop.  Your help is so appreciated and needed!  Thanks also to Ben's mom and Roman's grandma for volunteering this week.

In Math we have started to take a closer look at place value.  When you see numbers ask your child how many hundreds, tens, ones and even thousands too to help review this concept.

 Our field trip to Burnaby Village Museum  on Friday, December 15th was put on the portal on Monday.   Please sign up and thanks to those who already have.  The cost for this trip is $9.00.
Our skating field trip is on Tuesday, Dec. 19 at 1:00 it will be on the portal soon.  We will put this on the notice but please remember that for skating you should NOT pay online as we take the money directly to the skating rink.

SCHOLASTIC IS DUE ON MONDAY.  I extended it as many students thought?? they wanted to order.  Please don't feel you have to, I just want to give you the opportunity if you really did want to purchase.

Conferences are next week on Thursday and Friday.  It is an early dismissal 11:00 am on Thursday and there is no school on Friday (just conferences).  Please remember your child must be there for the conference.  The first 15 minutes they will show you their work and then the last 15 minutes is with myself and your child.  You should arrive the time you signed up for.  If you have any questions please just ask or email.

Hope you all have a great weekend.
