Hi Everyone!

Welcome back to a new school year!! We had a good first two weeks and are getting settled into our school and class routines. We are looking forward to a great year together!!

Phys. Ed - Our Phys. Ed days this week are Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Library - Our library day will be on Tuesday. Students will be able to sign out a book each week to take home. Books must be returned before another book can be signed out.

Homework/Reading - The homework for the week is listed in the orange homework books. To start we are working on our sight word lists. Once students can read the words on both sides of the page quickly, sign the sheet and we will send home the next list. A bag of reading books will be sent home for the week. Students can choose one book to read each night to someone at home. Make sure you record the book on the log sheet. It is okay if they would like to read a book more than once. Please send the homework book back each day. The reading books can come back at the end of the week.

Blue Folders/Agendas -We will be sending home the blue folders and agendas each day. You will notice that the folders have 2 sides - Bring Back - for items that need to be signed and returned to school. Leave Home - Notices or Memos for you to read and keep. In the agendas we will write the things that are happening for the week and the students will write their homework down for each day. Please check both the agendas and blue folders each night and return them to school with your child each day.

No School - Schools are closed on Monday September 19th for a National Day Of Mourning in honour of Queen Elizabeth ll.

Fletcher's Farm - We will be going on a field trip to Fletcher's Farm on Wednesday September 21st. A permission slip was sent home in the blue folders. Please sign and return the slip. The cost for students is $3.00, the Student Council will pay the remaining cost.

Terry Fox Walk - Our school will be participating in the annual Terry Fox School Walk on Friday September 23rd. Students are asked to bring in a donation if they can.

Water Bottles - Students are welcome to bring a water bottle that they can use during the school day. Our fountains have taps, where they can refill their bottles when needed.

Please check back each wake to view our class page!

Have a great week Grade 2!!
