Good afternoon!

We had a nice day today.  We started off the day today working on language.  The children worked on special sounds and rhyming.  During math the children worked on 2D shapes.  We identified them, compared them, and drew pictures with them.  We then had a whole-school rehearsal for The Pied Piper.  The big performance is tomorrow night (Arts Night) so it was nice to have another whole-school practice session today.  The children also went to music, P.E and french.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, Letters and Sounds page 163 - 165, Math Makes Sense page 216 - 217, practice for the measurement quiz tomorrow.

Important information:  Please see my posting from yesterday about the measurement quiz we are having tomorrow.  I posted study tips for the children to work on tonight.

For Arts Night tomorrow night the children need to come to school at 6:30 dressed in their Pied Piper costumes ready to perform.  The only exception are the children in the choir who will come dressed in their yellow tops and black bottoms and will bring their Pied Piper clothing to change into after our choir performance.

The Track and Field event is taking place this Friday, June 3rd.  Please make sure your children come to school in gym clothes and bring water bottles, hats and are wearing sun screen as we will be outside the entire afternoon.

All of next week is going to be a casual week at St. Jude's so families have time to wash and prepare any uniforms they would like to sell on Graduation Night.  All students do need to come dressed in their gym uniforms for the Canada's Wonderland trip though.

We are going to have an end of the year party on June 10th.  If anyone would like to send in treats for the class please feel free!

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
