March Break Madness!

With Day 100 behind us, we've decided to have a week of fun dress-up days with a little competition for a challenge. Classes K-5 are participating, and the classes (one from K-2 and one from 3-5) with the greatest number of students participating in the dress-up days will have a special treat on Tuesday, March 8th.

Monday - Red and White Day (cheer for Canada in the Olympics)
Tuesday - Backwards Day
Wednesday - Beach Day
Thursday - PJ Day
Friday - Hat Day

The letter Hh is our focus this week, along with live, give, and his (word wall words).

Please remember to read each night - the little handmade books that come biweekly can also be written down in log books. As well, please have homework completed and returned by Thursday. thanks!

All going as planned, Friday, February 19th, will be Day 100 for our K-2 students, with special activities throughout the day, as well as Day 100 projects coming in by Wednesday, February 17th.

closer to Day 100

We are talking about the letter Ff this week, and our new word wall words are one, by, and from.
A special request this week - the school is doing a "Hearts from Home" challenge, to see if we can get a valentine card from each student and staff member to send to Dalton Brown, who has been away from home since mid-July last year, fighting cancer. He hopes to be home in a few weeks - YAY!!!! - but we'd like to send him a big parcel full of valentine cards. The card can be store-bought or homemade. Thanks for your support!
Friday afternoon will be our Valentine's Day "party" in our homerooms for K-2. Lists with names is on this blog. If you'd like to contribute some apple juice or a snack for the party, please let me know. Thank you!
