Good afternoon,

I hope everyone had a great night!

Just a reminder to dress according to the ever-changing weather!

We have begun uniform checks again! These will happen every now and again to ensure that all SJA students are wearing proper uniform. Uniform pieces must be bought through Apla and Multiform Canada. Uniform violations will be sent home if a student is not wearing the proper piece of clothing! First violation: a warning to parents. Second violation: the office will notify a parent and the correct uniform piece must be brought to the school the same day. Third violation: uniform piece will be sent home at parent’s expense. Fourth violation: community service hours will be assigned. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

MATH

Today we continued looking at perimeter, except today we looked at measuring big items such as a football field. Remember to find perimeter, we need to add up all of the sides. Please also remember to include the unit of measurement (km, m cm, etc.).

LANGUAGE

Today we had our in-class Spelling Bee! Congrats to Rishaan and Mehar for making it through to the finals for the grade 5 Spelling Bee and to Zara, Shane, Lucas, Tanya, and Shrivatsaa for making it through to the finals for the grade 4 Spelling Bee! Great job everyone. I was very pleased with the excellent sportsmanship I saw during and after our competition. It really warmed my heart!

UOI

Today we looked at the major components of soil. We also created a flip book to help us remember.

I hope you all have a wonderful evening!

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ICE CREAM!!
