Good afternoon everyone!

I hope everyone had a great night! Thank you to all the families who came out to support us last night. They did an absolutely fantastic job and they should be very proud. I know I am!

The wind whips through our playground, so please ensure your child is dressed properly! Please see our cold weather policy below!

Important information and reminders:

It is hard to believe, but the time is here already – re-registration is upon us! Re-registrations forms were sent home today. The deadline to re-register is February 9. After that we open up spaces to the public. Do not delay – reserve your spot today for grade 5!

A big thank you from the ‘Me to We Club.’

Today we watched ‘Arthur Christmas,’ finished the class clean, created a New Years picture, and thought about some resolutions we can work towards in the upcoming year!

Holiday Homework: due Wednesday, January 11. Student will not need to bring agendas to school tomorrow. Tomorrow they only need to bring back their spelling lesson #15!

Language – Students have been assigned topics for Japan, our International Mindedness Day project. Students are to complete research and have it ready for their return to school. Students will need to have at least one book and research from the Internet.

-Complete spelling lessons #16 & 17

Math – Begin practicing your multiplication and division, as we will be beginning this unit once we return to school. There are many good websites that have games such as mathplayground.com. You can also find worksheets online.

UOI – Students will become a news anchor and find a newspaper article or video online of a religious issue or milestone and summarize it. You will need to present your summary in the form of a presentation or a video. Please keep the original article, as it will have to be submitted. Please see paper sent home tonight.

I would like to thank you all for the support over the last 4 months. I am very lucky to have such a great group of students who make me laugh every day! I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I will see you on Wednesday, January 11!
