It is hard to believe that it is
already November!
October was a very busy month for
us all.
Camp was a great experience and
everyone should be proud of all their accomplishments as well as their kind,
inclusive behavior! Some of the camp
staff commented that our group was one of the most respectful groups that they
had worked with in a very long time!
Thanks to everyone who helped make
camp possible – including parent volunteers, our dedicated fundraising
organizer, parent council, administration and office staff, teachers, Educational
Assistants and of course Camp Arnes staff.
Students have now completed their
“Identity Projects”, including their formal paragraphs and collage. I am in the
process of assessing these now. Expect
these to come home in the near future.
Students from 5/6 Wood have also
been working in groups to write about some of the activities they participated
in at camp. These are posted on this blog for your reading
pleasure. Well done grade 5's and 6's.
We are currently focusing on “Body
Systems” in Science and the history of First Peoples in Canada in Social
Studies.
Please continue to encourage your
students to practice math facts daily (in provided booklets and /or online – we
are now set up on “Xtra Math”) and read every day.
