October is here!  This is a short week, as there is no school for students on Thursday and Friday. Monday is Thanksgiving. Enjoy the long weekend with your family.    International Project Again this year our Grade 2 Classes will be taking part in a collaborative project with Grade 2 Classes in Dallas Texas. We will be working on different activities each month.  Today we had our first live weekly weather report. Lexa and Justin were our class reporters and Tanner did the poetry reading. They did a super job! Tomorrow we will do our first video conference and the students will have a chance to meet their pen pals and learn a little more about each other.    This week is Fire Prevention Week. Make sure you take the time to discuss fire safety tips and practice your escape plan at home.      Have a great week and enjoy the long weekend!
