The Scholastic Book Fair begins on Wednesday at 9:00 am. and runs until Friday at 11:30 am. Don't forget to fill out the form on the back of the flyer, your child could win $25.00 worth of books for him/her and $25.00 for our homeroom.

This week our spelling words are: your, when, that, say, look, go, hot, Wednesday, sore and store.
PLEASE see that your child is reading nightly at home. We have been in school over 50 days which means your child should have at least 45 titles or so written in his /her Log Book. Only three people do.
This week is PINK WEEK. There are various activities planned for the week. There will be a PINK Assembly on Thursday.
Stay warm!

Busy, busy!

Yikes! No Blog this week. This past week, although only four days long, seemed to go on for ever. Great job for getting the homework done up quickly boys and girls.
 Thursday evening we had a lovely group of pre-schoolers and their parents come to our " Welcome to Kindergarten" meeting. It was very nice to meet everyone.
The spelling words for the week of the 18th are good, have, read, any, did, or, too, Tuesday, woke and spoke. Keep on reading those books and recording those titles boys and girls. You are all becoming better readers and quite INDEPENDENT:)
I think the weather is going to be a bit warmer this next week, let us hope.
Enjoy the weekend and have a good "next" week.

Longer evenings

Well it is brighter in the mornings, at least for awhile.
This week our spelling words are: help, ride, work, find, there, Sunday, snake, take, male, and tale. Please see that your child is reading regularly. I don't always have a chance to check with them to make sure they have a book to take home. Please remind them as well.
This is a busy week coming up. Wednesday the Mill Rats (basketball) from Saint John will be visiting our school. There are workshops after school at different times. Please see posters around the community and listen to the Talk Mail for specifics.
Wednesday evening parents and children are invited to check out Math and Literacy activities for K-2 in the Great Hall, along with the curriculum documents. Information has been sent home.
Friday November 8th we are having a Remembrance Day Assembly at 1:00 pm.

Hallowe'en

This week most of our spelling words are words we have done already, either last year or a few weeks back. They are: little, here, strap, what, pretty, want, track, pale, sale and whale.
Many of the boys and girls have read way beyond thirty books. Good job, keep it up!
This week on Wednesday, we have an assembly at 11:00 am. All are welcome. We will be going room to room for activities on the afternoon of the 31st., Thursday. We will finish up in our room for about 20 or 25 minutes for a little party. The boys and girls may bring costumes if they like, and change into them at noon.
Have a SPOOKY week.

October

This week our spelling words are: house, no, said, let, in, come, also, cake, make and bake. Everyone has moved a level or two in their reading, "way to go!" Please be reading every night, it really makes a difference.

Have a good week.

Mid- October

This week our spelling words are: what, us, call, my, jump, see, called, strap, gap, and slip. We have some lovely new books and your child should be bringing one home to read with you each night.

Enjoy this lovely weather, we know it won't last for ever.

Short Week!

This week is indeed a short week for your children. There is no school for students on Thursday or Friday but the teachers will be here for professional development. So homework will need to be tackled right away and back in by Wednesday. Tomorrow, Tuesday is PICTURE DAY. We are scheduled for 9:30 am.
