Welcome to the 20's!!!

Good afternoon everyone!


Welcome to the new 20's! 😁

I hope everyone has had an enjoyable and restful break. Our floors have been waxed and are now shiny and bright waiting for students to return - make sure you have your indoor shoes if they were taken home!

Up coming events:

  • Mr. Hawken has asked to remind everyone that next week we are continuing our juggling and unicycle skills, so make sure you bring your helmets on Monday.  
  • All library books are due on Tuesday January 14.  
    • Also a reminder that our regular library exchange day is on Tuesday mornings and books can be checked out for 3 weeks before they need to be renewed or returned.  Students can take out 3 books now, one to remain in the classroom for quiet reading time. 
  • Friday will be our usual 12:15 dismissal.  
  • We are expecting it to be quite cold for the next little while so please ensure your children are dressed for the cold (busses breakdown occasionally and we want everyone to be warm and safe at all times).  
Reminder of classroom routines and expectations: 
  • Indoor shoes at all times
  • Healthy snacks. In an effort to give our brains the best boost, I allow all students to have a snack at any time while working, but they may not have cookies, chips or candy as these foods do not support learning.  
    • The rule I have encouraged is - veggies, fruit, yogurt, cheese/meat & crackers, and muffins and fruit breads are also acceptable.  Going into the new year this rule will now be fully enforced.  Treat type snacks will only be allowed with lunch.   
  • No nuts/nut products - we have serious allergies in our classroom 
  • No scented hand sanitizers please 
I can't wait to see everyone back at school tomorrow!

Good evening room 10 families, We have a short, but jam packed month coming up!  This week we will begin to review division and its relationship to multiplication.  Then we will move in to developing for multiplying and dividing double digit numbers.  Our writing will shift from narrative story writing to persuasive writing and we will continue working on developing our editing skills. In Social Studies we are learning about Alberta's rich historical past and we are excited to begin building our own Fur Trapper Fort.  Health will continue to focus on improving our understanding of the impacts of bullying and we are excited to present our short stick puppet plays around the school to help others learn to be kind and inclusive. Field study permission forms will be coming home for our trip to the Leighton Centre on March 18th. Thank you to those families that have gone above and beyond to fulfill their volunteer commitments so far this year. We only require two more volunteer

Homework!!! And report cards 😉

Happy Monday everyone! We have report cards coming home today, everyone is excited to see how they did so don't be surprised if they're opened before they get home.  We do ask them to wait, but ... Please return the envelopes to help the school save on supplies. I am sending home the kids Social Studies duo-tang. They have a check list for their project that they are working on in Google Docs.  We have has a substantial amount of time to research and gather the information and to enter it in our docs. I cannot dedicate any more class time to complete this work.  I would appreciate it if you could speak to your children about using their class time wisely. - Students who are building the cube will be given the cube templates and the printed information to cut and paste tomorrow.  All projects are due by Thursday. Field Study forms for our next trip are also coming home today. We need 4 volunteers for our trip to the Glenbow Museum on February 5th. **Edit - sorry this was
