Good afternoon!

We had a great day today!  We started off the day by working on language.  The children worked on special sounds and cursive.  In math we had our measurement quiz, which went really well!  I was very pleased with the results, and am happy to see that the students are coming out of the unit with new found skills.  The marked tests will be coming home with your children tonight.  After the quiz we continued working with 2-D shapes.  The children solved problems using 2D shapes.  It was a fun way to see what they know about counting the sides and vertices of various shapes.  We had our final rehearsal today in preparation for Arts Night tonight.  The concert is running very well and the children are all very excited about everyone seeing it tonight!  They also went to french class.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, Letters and Sounds page 166 - 168, Math Makes Sense page 220 - 222 and cursive page 108 - 109.

Important information:  The Arts Night concert is taking place tonight.  Please make sure your children are back at SJA by 6:30 dressed in either their choir costume or their Pied Piper costume.  Choir students need to bring their Pied Piper costume in a bag to change into after our performance.

Friday is the SJA Track and Field event.  Please make sure your children come wearing sun screen, and are bringing water bottles and hats with them so they can be comfortable outside all afternoon.

The last week of school (June 6th - 10th) is a casual week.  Students do not have to wear their uniforms to school, except on the Canada's Wonderland trip when they will be wearing gym clothes.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
