Week of Dec. 11-15

• I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!  Hard to believe....two weeks before Xmas break!
• Please make sure students are reading 20 min. each night AND recording it in their nightly reading duotang.
• Practice math facts nightly and the gr.3 will have a couple of pages to do in their orange duotangs.  We had a quiz on adding and subtracting on Thursday. Those will go home on Monday.  Please sign and return to school.  We are starting our unit on measurement next week.
• I should have the procedural writing pieces corrected by mid-week.  I will send them home for you to sign and return to me.  This week the students will be reading their thank you letters that they have written to various staff members around the school.  They are very proud of these. The students will be starting "My Xmas Wish" writing pieces this week.
• Our Christmas concert will be this Friday, Dec. 15 beginning at 1:00pm
• Candy grams will be on sale Monday and Tuesday (I believe they are 50 cents)
• We are also collecting food items at our school for the food bank.  It would be great if you could send in anything you can spare.
• Have a wonderful week everyone!
