Hello Families,

February seemed to slip by us too quickly, and we only have 4 months left of this school year! 

This week we studied clouds patterns in science and looked at predicting weather from them. In math we have been focused on money as it links to the work we have been doing on decimals, and we plan to continue with this next week. In literacy we continue to explore stories and how to write exciting tales ourselves. This week we have used Jamboard to start planning a visual story, which we will write and draw next week. I am excited to see how they turn out. 

Our art and health encompassed Pink Shirt Day this week, as we honour our peers by supporting positive relationships and standing together against bullying. We designed t-shirt to 'hang bullying out to dry!' In gym we are ending our focus on soccer, and will be moving on to traditional games. We began our 'Alberta Bound" project in social studies; this week we focused on the natural resources and physical geography of our beautiful province. 

Next week Nation Vision are visiting the school to carry out eye tests on those students who returned the permission form. If you still wish your child to have an eye test, please contact the office to obtain a consent form. 

Have a wonderful weekend.
