Hello Families, 

Today is the end of the school week as teachers convention begins tomorrow. Students return to school on Tuesday February 16th. Hopefully the weather will improve by next week. Please continue to send your child with weather appropriate clothing so they are ready to go outside when the weather warms up to more normal winter temperatures. 

This week we focused on adding and subtracting decimals in math. In literacy we planned and wrote our own story, using descriptive language. In science we continued our focus on the weather and conducted an experiment examining what happens when the air temperature is different. In social studies we began reading and discussing stories about Black History in Canada. We moved on to soccer in gym and continued our work on self-esteem in health. In art we used the skill of quilling to create masterpieces for Valentine. 

Friday is the deadline for ordering your Healthy Hunger Meals on line in time for next Wednesday. Your child has a note in their backpack if you need further details. 

If you still wish to take advantage of a free eye exam for your child in school, please return the form next week. 

Wishing you all a fabulous Family Day Weekend.
