Hello families and friends,

We have been continuing work in our math groups on our work for the student led learning walks next week.  Ask your child what they are working on.

We will be welcoming parents to the school for our second round ofStudent Led Learning Walks. This time, we will be showcasing work from Kindergarten to Grade 4 related to the common theme ‘Mathematics with Literature connections’.  The purpose of Student Led Learning Walks is to make learning visible for everyone as we share what the goals, words and expectations of curriculum look like as they come alive across all grade levels.

·         If your child’s last name begins with letter from A - L please attend onWednesday, March 9^th 6:00 -7:30 pm.

 

·         If your child’s last name begins with the letter from M -  Z please attend on Thursday, March 10th from 6:00 pm-7:30 pm. 

 

·         If you are unable to make it on the assigned evening you are welcome to change nights. 

In the afternoon we did some Making Words with the letters a, i, b, b, r, s, and t.  Can you figure out what the big word is?  In dance, Ms. Janelle taught the students some African dancing.  We finished off our day by sharing the projects that the students have done in their inquiry groups.

Consent forms for the field trip to Heritage Park have gone home.  Volunteer forms will be going home with students tomorrow.  If you had emailed me to say that you will be able to volunteer for that day and do not receive a volunteer form tomorrow please email me at <gasoulliere@cbe.ab.ca> so that I can get that to you as soon as possible.  We would like to have all forms returned to us by next Friday, March 11th.

Thank you to those who volunteered to send in cupcakes for our Cupcake day earlier this week.  It was a huge success and we have managed to sell a lot of cupcakes for a good cause.

Have a wonderful Wednesday.
