Monday, May 11, 2015. At our Professional Learning Day on Friday, Ms. Scheldrup gave us some new resources to access. One that I particularly found interesting was Reading Rockets. Among other things, it's a site that gives ways to help struggling readers. If you want some new ideas to help your child with reading, check it out! 150 Ways to Show Kids You Care:. Math: We are going back into patterns for the last time but please keep practicing basic facts at home. Spelling: Lesson 13; Spelling City is up.

Monday, September 29, 2014. Thank you for an amazing Trickster week! The show was fabulous! The kids were amazing and the memories will last a lifetime.

Monday, January 26, 2015. Well, the students are getting a real life example lately of a phenomenon we learned about when studying the Foothills Region: the Chinook! I personally don't know if the 19 temperature is worth the winds, but what can you do? At least the kids can go outside and play! If you would like some practice sheets for at home, you can generate your own here. Writing: I would like all students to either be finished or close to finishing their photography projects this week. Writing: If ...

Tuesday, June 16, 2015. It started off as a sad week with the news we shared on Monday. We want you to remember to talk with your child and if you think your child may need to talk to someone, we have counselling services at school all week. As we find out time of a service for Patrick, that information will be passed on. Week at a glance:. Please remind your child to hand in any overdues books this week!

Monday, April 27, 2015. Thank you to all students who have brought items for our Leader in Me gift bags so far. One item we are definitely missing is play dough. If you have a free evening and would be willing to make a batch, we would be very grateful! When we put the bags together on Wednesday, we can divvy it up into smaller portions so you don't need to worry about that. I found a website. Here that gives different recipes. It doesn't need to be fancy! To read, and VOTE on May 5th! Writing: This week...
