Christmas Spelling Words

Next week we are going to be working on Christmas Spelling words. I know they are challenging for the Grade Ones so although they will practice all ten, I will only test them on the first five. I will give them the option because I think some of them will enjoy the challenge. I will introduce them on Monday, December4th and test them on Friday, December 8th.

Christmas, angel, shepherd, wisemen, camel, donkey, star, Mary, Joseph, present

Christmas Decorating Party

Oh, it’s a busy season! On to othe nxt fun thing! On Friday, December 1, we are having a classroom decorating party from 10:30-12:00. Don’t forget that it is a half day with noon pick up!  Thank you to the parents who are coming in to do Art with us and those that are sending Christmas treats!

Soup Making

Thank you to the parents who came in to help us this morning and the parents who sent supplies. The students were super excited to be ine

the kitchen. I got side tracked in the happy chaos of chopping and pouring and forgot to take kitchen photos, but I did get a few of the kids slurping up the soup!

There was quite alot left over so I am taking it home to add onions, spices and other adult flavours and then one of our staff members who volunteers with Cyrus Centre will be taking it there to feed the teens for lunch.

I’m just checking in about soup making. I haven’t received any offers of help or supplies. I’ll leave it open until Friday and then make a decision whether to cancel the activity. Your help and support are much appreciated.

Reading Books

Many of you have asked if you should return the reading books and I have said to keep them or dispose of them, but as the books are getting longer and my photocopying tab is growing, I have changed my mind. Could you return the reading books when you are finished reading them? Thanks so much!
