Hello Room 10 Families, As your children have likely told you, we've been focusing on bully awareness and prevention. I am sad to report that we have a significant problem with bullying in our classroom. In order to correct this problem we are learning what bullying is, what we can do to prevent it, and how we can all be kind humans who can make a difference. We have spent some time learning what empathy is and what it looks like to be empathetic. We are in the process of creating a project that helps us see that it's what's inside that matters most so we can find ways to connect with peers in positive and meaningful ways. Today we read a story called "My Secret Bully". This book can evoke emotions and feelings when kids start to relate to the main characters experiences and feelings.

Good afternoon everyone, Today everyone is bringing home their No Excuse spelling. I have attached the list we used for them to self-check and to practice with.

Please support your child in completing their project if they are still working on adding information to their documents. Remember to bring back all textbooks and green duo-tangs on Monday. We are working on multiplication - practice math facts! 😀 Tom...
Good afternoon! Tomorrow we are excited to learn about the Fur Traders and the Indigenous Peoples. We leave the school at 8:30 and will return for regular dismissal at 2:35. Please remember to send your child with a healthy lunch and a drink. We will not have our backpacks on this trip so it will be best to have a water bottle or juice box that fits in their lunch bags. There are water fountains available. Stay tuned for pictures! Mrs. B.
Merry Christmas, Happy new year, Happy holidays.
