Today, student pictures were sent home.
This week, Mr. O Reilly is using the school gym to record a special song for the CBC Music Challenge. Tomorrow, Kindergarten is going outside for gym class. Please ensure that your child is dressed for our winter weather.
Thank-you for your support for Kindergarten's Treat Day!
Last Tuesday, while on morning supervision I fell on some black ice.   I'm at home recovering from a concussion. Mrs. Stilborn is subbing for me.  I'm really missing my class, but I'll return to work as soon as I am able.

Thursday, November 7

In gym we are learning how to use a child size racket to serve underhand over the net. We started with fluff balls, and today we tried small balls. I'm seeing a lot of improvement and an increased awareness of where their body is in the space around them. Next week, we'll continue to work on our swing and see if we can get a fluff ball or soft ball back and forth over the net!

Today, we had a 'guest scientist' visit our classroom to talk about the science artifacts that we have at our science table. We shared our ideas about other types of science we have in the natural world around us.

Tomorrow for FAF we are going outside to look at the shades of colors in nature. Soho will be here as well. You are invited to attend our Remembrance Day Assembly  at 10:45 AM. Thank-you for your generous donations of food for our Veterans.
