Today we continued working on our Daily 5 skills of Read to Self, Read to Someone, and Work on Writing. The students have also been working with the teachers during this time on guided reading. In math we continued our math rotations. Ask your child what they learned today. We will be continuing these tomorrow, but not at our normal time. Instead, we will be having our special guest teacher come in to talk with us about what it was like when Cranston School first opened. This is part of our work looking at the past and present of our family, school, and community. In the afternoon we broke into our word work groups, and finished our day working on our Autumn tree art project.
Calgary Flames and CBE have partnered up again to offer 'Press Level' seating to families at a discounted price. $36 for a ticket, and $10 from each ticket purchased goes right back to Cranston School. Go to www.calgary.flames/studentnight for more information. Remember to choose Cranston from the drop down menu. Tickets sell out fast, so please order soon!
Cranston Peace Ambassadors will be starting a drive for Jacket Racket beginning Monday, October 26th and running to Friday, November 6th. This is a wonderful opportunity for all students to help other children here in our city, by donating warm outerwear that they no longer need. It is a valuable experience for our students and reinforces Cranston School’s commitment to peace and citizenship education. Please take some time with your children to go through their winter items. It is that time of year when we all realize that hats, mittens, boots, snow pants and coats have been outgrown! Please give them a wash and put them in a plastic bag to be brought to school. If you could list the items and sizes on the outside of the bag, it would help the students with the sorting process! We also accept adult sizes, as many older students need help to stay warm in the winter as well!
Tomorrow is the last day for November and December Fun Lunch orders. Please send in the payment remittance form along with the payment.
We will be celebrating Halloween on Thursday, October 29th. We will be doing some small activities with our grade 3/4 buddies in the afternoon. Students are invited to wear their Halloween costumes in the afternoon only. Costumes must be age-appropriate, and students must be able to put them on without adult assistance. Please keep masks, weapons, or other accessories such as wands and brooms at home. Thank you in advance for not sending any treats etc. that day.
Have a great evening!
