Surgery

       An important note for parents. Miss.Sturgeon will be away starting this Friday, November 28th until approximately Dec. 4th for surgery. The supply teacher who has taken the job has been in the class and met the students before. Any very important notes that require immediate action can be otherwise directed to resource, office, etc.


                              Wish her luck!

Homework for this week will be a math patterning practice sheet for grade 4 AND grade 5. No textbook work for Grade 5 this week.

In addition, there will be some language homework added into the mix. For the next few months, there will be grammar or spelling activities in addition to math. Spelling lists will have little quizzes on Friday! So practice those words!

We have been swamped with forms lately for parents to fill in!

Here is a list to keep track of them all:

That's about 8 things to sign and return! Thanks!

Homework

Hello! The homework this week is a practice pattern worksheet for grade 4 and textbook work for grade 5.
Gr 5- Text pg 52 # 1-18 and page 53 all.

Both grade have a Class Time Capsule Project for religion to bring in by next Monday November 24th.


Grade 4- Please remember to hand in homework in your dark blue folders!

Oops.

If your child said "I didn't get homework tonight", they are correct! Miss. Sturgeon was working on cleaning the gym and removing Remembrance Day props last block, and forgot to send home the work! They will have a short patterning page coming home Wednesday evening!

Thanks to all parents who came out today for our ceremony. I was impressed by the students in our class. They did a wonderful job, were respectful and well prepared. The entire school was on best behaviour in the gym and the ceremony was a success.

Thanks also, to all parents who shared their family history with their children, and in turn, with the school for our Tribute video.

Information regarding interviews will be coming home soon. Watch for the notice in agendas!

Tomorrow is PJ DAY FOR UNITED WAY. Students can donate to a worthy cause and wear jammies all day! If its cold, make sure to wear leggings under light flannel etc.

Remembrance Day Ceremony

Please try to attend our Remembrance Day ceremony in our school gym. Our class is overseeing and presenting the entire ceremony. You can watch your child read and lead us in prayers and poems to honour those who fought for our freedom.

Students in our class are encouraged to wear a white shirt or red shirt, and a poppy on the left side, with jeans or dark pants.

It will begin by 10:45 to allow an introduction and moment of silence at 11am.

Miss. Sturgeon

Homework

This week's homework is memorizing the Flander's Fields poem through repetition. We also need family research: photos and information about your relatives that may have fought in any of our wars; whether they lived or gave their lives. We are putting them into a video for our school Remembrance Day Ceremony. Our class is in charge!
