Our Terry Fox run was so much fun! Our students were so proud of themselves for getting out there, even though the weather was a bit chilly. Thank you for all of the generous donations and helping to keep Terry's legacy alive. On Friday, our class started drawing Terry Fox portraits and so far they look amazing! We have some little artists in our classroom... It looks like winter has started early this year. Please send your child to school in weather appropriate clothing. A reminder that we continue to have an outdoor recess unless the weather is colder than -20 degrees. Winter coats, snow pants, snow shoes, mittens/gloves, scarves and toques will help keep our little ones warm on the playground. Looking forward to another wonderful week ahead!

It was great meeting all of you last Thursday night. I hope you got a chance to see what we are up to in Room. 7. This week we have a few important deadlines: -Fluoride Varnish consent forms for grade 1's are due on September 17th.  -Book orders need to be in by the end of this week.  -Please review, sign and send back all of the forms that were sent home  this week.  This week we have new math groups and we have moved on from patterns to number sense. In Science, we are learning about our five senses. Ask your child to tell you what they are! We are working on a new poem using digraphs such as sh, th, ch, wh. Ask your child to tell you some words that start with those digraphs. Hope you all have a great week!
