FIRST TERM COMMUNICATION WITH PARENTS:
In past years, this week, we would be sending home the first term progress reports to parents. The Government has decided to push this to November 2020. We will also have 2 term report cards instead of 3 this year.
TERRY FOX WALK: TOONIES FOR TERRY
Thank you to everyone who has donated a TOONIE. We are collecting funds until October 30th, 2020. If you have not already done so, please send in a TOONIE to help raise funds for the TERRY FOX FOUNDATION for cancer research. If you would like to donate online, you may also do so at:
Thank you for your support for this wonderful cause.
HOMEWORK:
Please have your children PRACTICE dressing him/herself (zipping his/her jacket, fastening buttons and snaps, putting on his/her hat, neck warmer, gloves and mitts). The children need some practice in this area as we are having to assist most children with zipping their jackets.
Please keep the Alphabet Letter Sounds yellow homework duo-tang at home. Please refer to the first page in the yellow duo-tang for a detailed explanation of the homework.
The blue songs and poems duo-tang will be sent home every Monday and must be returned the following Monday. Throughout the week, please have your child practice singing the weekly songs/poems and complete the activity at the bottom of the page (if there is one) in the blue duo-tang. Please refer to the introduction letter for a more detailed explanation.
Please have your child practice writing his/her name in lower case letters EVERY DAY. Please focus on correct letter formation (make letters from TOP to BOTTOM etc.).
I have posted this week's pictures of the children on the website.

SCHOLASTICS:
As soon as the October paper flyer arrives at school, I will send it home. In the mean time, you can view the ENGLISH digital flyer here with lots more books than available in the paper flyer:
There is also a FRENCH digital flyer that may interest you:
You can explore their website for lots different books as well. www.scholastic.ca
If you would like to purchase books from the Scholastic website, simply take note of the title, price and item number and I can easily order them for you.
I am encouraging parents NOT to place their orders online and instead to have me place a class order. To receive free shipping to your home you must spend $35. Sometimes parents like to buy one or a few books. If I place a class order, we only need $35 of orders (from the entire class) to get free shipping and this way you may purchase what you would like, even if it is the $2.00 book. You must pay by cash this year as Scholastic is not accepting cheques for the time being. I will let you know the deadline shortly, as soon as I send home the paper flyers.
