Hello families and friends,

Entertainment books are going home today.  We are selling these books to raise money.  Each book costs $40.  Students should be asking family and friends if they would like to buy these books, NOT STRANGERS.  Please help them in figuring out people that would be a good choice to ask if they would like to buy one.  There is information in the bags that have been sent home about the order forms, the books, and some of the prizes that can be won.  The book that is going home today is a sample book, but unless it is sold it does need to be returned.

We started our day in our individual classes today.  Ms. McEvoy's group also had their first day of music with Mrs. Jones.  After our snack, we continued work on our writing about what we did over the summer.  Then all the students in the school got to enjoy a nice treat, courtesy of parent council!  Thank you to all of them for their hard work in organizing this.  We finished our morning working on representing a new number.

In the afternoon we continued working on our self portraits.  Then today was our first day of gym with Mr. McDougall.  He taught us all about the rules of the playground and how to be safe.  Ask your child about this!  After gym we shared some of the writing that we've done, and then Mrs. Fournier's class had their first music lesson with Mrs. McBride, while Mr. Soulliere and Ms. McEvoy's class had a chance to browse the classroom library.  We finished the day with our Entertainment Book kick-off assembly and taking a look at how to get to the classroom blog.

Thank you,
