Hi Everyone! I hope you enjoyed your weekend! It is hard to believe, but we are into the last week of October.Please make sure you are dressing for the weather. It would be a good idea to have mittens or gloves and a hat in your bookbag.  Phys. Ed Our Phys. Ed days this week are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.      Library Our library day is on Friday. Make sure you bring your book back so you can get another one out.   Halloween Lunch Special If you would like to order the lunch special that will be on Friday October 30th, you need to pre-order by Tuesday October 27th. The cost of the meal is $6.00.    Spirit Week The School WE DAY Group will be hosting Spirit Week from October 27th - October 30th. Students can make a donation to participate in the different theme dress days each day. All money raised will go to the group to help support their travel to the We Day Event in Halifax.                            Tuesday - Plaid Day                            Wednesday - PJ Day                            Thursday - School Colours Day                             Friday - Twin Day  Homework/ Borrow-A-Book The homework for the week is listed in the blue folders. The spelling words for this week focus on the short /i/ vowel sound. We are working on counting with money, so our math pages focus on that. As it is almost Halloween, that will be our main idea for the writing this week. Make sure you use good details and begin and end your sentences the right way. Remember to read your book each night and record it on the log sheet.  Food Drive Our school is collecting food items for the Food Bank until Christmas. If you can help out and bring in some food items that would be great.   Class Project With Texas We had our first Skype session with our friends in Texas. The students got to meet their pen pals and say hello to each other.  We will be doing on weekly reports on Tuesday. We mailed our letters out on Thursday. Our friends told us that they have not planted their tulips yet becuase the ground is too hot. They have to keep them in the fridge to stay cold until they can plant them in December!  Math We are getting into our unit on Numbers to 100. This week we started counting with money and finding out the name of each coin and the value of each one. At home you can use some change to practice counting.    Happy Halloween! Have a great week everyone! Have fun trick or treating and be safe!
