Friday Housekeeping

Thank you SO SO much for all the donations of baked goods this week for our bake sales in support of our friend Royce's family. They were a huge success and enabled the children to experience being a part of something bigger than themselves. As little people they seldom feel they are able to make a big contribution and make the world a better place for someone else. But as adults we know that what seems like even the tiniest gesture on our part can make a significant difference for someone. Like many things, kindness is a quality that children learn over time and through practice. When kids feel that their help is needed and welcomed, they gain confidence that they have a contribution to make, and they keep on helping. The bake sales this week helped to reinforce all our lessons at home and at school about compassion and being goodhearted. Thank you for making a difference.
  • Don't forget to send the library books back next week and your child will put it in the Library Box on their way in.
  • November Family Projects are due whenever they are completed. December Family Projects are due Tuesday, Dec. 5.
  • Thank you for attending our You Can Count On Me math session in the gym today! 
  • I asked for December Scholastic book orders early (Thursday, Nov. 23) so that if you have ordered some for holiday gifts, you are sure to get them on time. Please let me know if any of your order is a gift and I will set it aside and hand it to you personally rather than sending it home with your child.
  • Mrs. Farber and I have planned a field trip to the Big Little Science Centre on Wednesday, Nov. 29. Permission forms are due Monday, Nov. 27 with $2 for the bus.
  • We will have our first skating trip with Mrs. Weber's class on Thursday, Nov. 30. If your child does not have skates they are welcome to borrow them from the school but the sizes might be off and they are a kijillion years old so not terribly warm or comfortable. 
  • McD's lunch will be delivered Friday, Dec. 1.
  • Report cards will come home with your child on Friday, Dec. 1. Please keep the report and sign and return the envelope to be used for our next reporting period.
  • Our wonderful PAC has sent home another fundraising venture this week. If you would like to order Fresh Is Best, please fill in the form and return it no later than Tuesday, Dec. 5. Orders will be ready for pick up at 8:30 am Wednesday, Dec. 20. 
  • BEST PAC will have a Christmas store where students can come and buy small gifts for their families at recess and lunch December 5 & 6. More information will be sent closer to the date.
  • A pair of new, dark grey snow pants went missing from our classroom at the end of the day two weeks ago. Please return them if you find them at home.
  • November sight words are: at, and, do, from, go, he, she, stop. If a word comes up repeatedly in our studies we will sometimes add it to our words for the month. Please feel free to practice them at home.
  • Please have your child read any little paper books that come home multiple times for practice. Thank you.
Go forth and Be Awesome!​
