Hi Parents and Students...welcome to the winter wonderland! With this new snow and colder temperatures it is vitally important to ensure that students are coming to school dressed for the weather with proper clothes and footwear.
Today was a busy day and filled with lots of work. We were engaged in our Daily 5 work in the morning and then had gym part way through the morning and then finished with our efforts on our Remembrance Day poems.
In the afternoon both the gr.3s and gr.4s had math.
Later in the day Rm.81 continued their efforts in testing materials and designs by using an interactive program that allowed them to test and chart different materials with a number of different forces. As we continue to explore and build we are going to need supplies in which to build with. We are encouraging students to bring in whatever materials they think might be useful in building a bridge between desks (approximately 1 metre).
We completed our day with a focused writing lesson on how to create contractions and how/why we would use them in our writings.
Cranston families, if you are interested in helping…
IMPORTANT à Please send your child’s teacher a comment through this BLOG post titled ‘FAMILIES HELPING FAMILIES AT CHRISTMAS’. State what item you are willing to contribute or donate based off of the needs the family has indicated so that all other families in your child’s class can see what has been contributed and what still is in need.
Please remember that our families would love to not have to worry about the purchase of food items and more than one gift card to their chosen grocery store would be welcomed!
**We welcome donations of gently used items for our families as well.
All gifts/donations will need to be wrapped and labeled for whom they are intended for. Wrapped contributions will be due by:
