Good afternoon!

It was so great to see everyone out last night for the Arts Night concert.  It went very well and we were very proud of all of our students!  We started off the day working on language.  The children worked on rhymes, special sounds and root words.  During math the children worked on the concept of symmetry.  We had a lot of fun cutting out shapes to experiment with symmetry, folded shapes to see where we could find symmetry, and drew in the other halves of shapes to make symmetry.  Ask your child tonight to tell you what they learned!  In history today we read about the beginning of Christianity and read and coloured a story-line.  The children also went to music, french and P.E classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words for tomorrow's spelling test,  cursive page 110 - 111 and Makes Makes Sense page 226 - 227.

Important information:  Tomorrow is the Track and Field event at SJA.  Please make sure your children are coming to school with water bottles, hats and are wearing sun screen as we are going to be outside tomorrow for the entire afternoon.

Canada's Wonderland forms need to be sent in by Friday (tomorrow) if your children are coming on the trip. 

The last week of school (June 6th - 10th) is a casual week.  This is so that parents can wash and prepare any uniforms that they would like to sell in the used-uniform-sale next Wednesday night.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
