The Scholastic Book Fair is here!
Students will be browsing through our book fair tomorrow and they may/may not have a little wish list in their homework. Students with money can shop on Wednesday. There is also a family ballot to win free books.

Today's snow was very exciting but there were lots of cold heads, fingers and toes. Please dress your child with the necessary gear to enjoy the outdoors. Layering might be helpful because our classroom temperature also fluctuates and an open window is good to keep the air circulating. If the sweater is available, your child has an option should he/she be warm or cold. I'd also like to suggest that your child have an extra pair of socks and mittens in his/her backpack.Labelling your child's clothing and belongings is always appreciated.
I'm noticing some children are exiting the room frequently for drinks at the fountain so I'm encouraging the children to bring a water bottle. Please send it empty to be filled at the fountain though as we've had a few wet homework bags and backpacks.
This month, our Home and School have planned a number of activities for the students to participate in and the money goes toward adopting families for Christmas.Our class also has 2 shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child (www.samaritanspurse.ca). Students are invited to bring just one item (small toy, school supplies, hygiene item,etc) for a boy or girl and together we can brighten the life of a child in a developing country for Christmas. We will also write cheerful notes to the children. This is just another way to show the children that they can make a difference.
A big "Thank-you" to all the families who sent in snacks for Halloween. It was a fun day!
