Hello families,

It was a very busy week! We spent time going through the literacy and mathematics government assessments. Students did a wonderful job with the substitute teachers  as I worked with grade groups and students 1:1 to complete these. Here is what else we got up to this week:

Walking Field trip with our buddies! We completed a gratitude nature scavenger hunt. 



Gratitude Jars

Mathematics: We have been exploring different pattern rules (core), extending patterns, and the different attributes that can be used to make a pattern.


 


In literacy we learned about the letter A, M, and S. Students practiced printing words, or sentences. For those who wanted a challenge are encouraged to use different sentence starters, punctuation, and descriptive language.


Physical Education: We have been learning about passing, catching, and throwing through cooperative games. We have also been practicing our running stamina and perseverance as the Terry Fox run approaches next week.

Also Parachute!

Responsible Work Choices of the Week


Reads of the Week





Nut Aware School

LBS is a nut-aware school, and allergy precautions are taken on a class-by-class basis. At this time, Room 8 does not have any students with nut allergies, so nut products are permitted. Please note, this could change if a new student joins our class or if I am notified of an allergy. Please ensure the office and myself are aware of any allergies ASAP.



 Scholastic Book Orders 

    Scholastic book order flyers were sent home last week. If you are interested in ordering you can use our class code which helps us earn money towards new classroom books! Your order will be shipped to the school and I will send them home with your child when they arrive. Orders for this flyer are due Friday October 17th.
    Thank you for supporting our classroom library!

    Class Code: RC358893



Office Forms

Paper packages from the office were sent home last Friday. Please fill out and return to school at your earliest convenience.  If you are interested in volunteering this year, please ensure you have signed the annual volunteer form if you already have  CBE police clearance, or begin your CBE police check with the office. Police checks can take some time to process, so starting early will help ensure you are able to join us on field trips! 


Soap Donations

We are always looking for pump bottles of soap for our classroom. While the school wall-dispensed soap works just as well, I’ve noticed that pump bottles are easier for small hands to use and seem to encourage more frequent, thorough handwashing. They also help us keep track of our hygiene routines as a class, since we can see the bottle getting low.

Any donations are greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping our class stay healthy!




Have a wonderful weekend,


Ms. Greenhall
