Hello families, This week we began a winter craft based on the book Squirrels Sweater. In addition to being quite cute, these squirrels offer fine motor practice through the practical life skill of weaving!

AARCS Fundraiser   Please note that we are only able to accept cash for this fundraiser. Thank you for your understanding! Mitten Tree LBS is collecting gently used and/or new children's mittens  to donate to another CBE school who has many students arriving to school without mittens  We are hoping to pack up our donations and deliver them before the winter break so the students can play in the snow over the break.  LBS Casino Calling All Volunteers - URGENT!   The Lake Bonavista School Improvement Society has been allocated a Casino Fundraiser December 17th and 18th at the Deerfoot Casino.

Hello families, This week in math we continued with graphing. Students were presented with the "Pizza Problem" and chose their just right level to collect, record, and represent their data!

Hello families,  This week we took part in some more Science experiments looking at colour. One included using skittles to paint and demonstrate our understanding of primary and secondary colours. Students were then asked to create all the colours in their colour wheels to finish off our learning about colour. 

Hello families, This week we prepared some work for parent-teacher conferences. Students completed their good copies of their Best Part of Me writing. Congrats to Room 8 for finishing their first Writer's Workshop this year! I am so impressed with our class's writing stamina. We are already up to 10 minutes which is amazing!
