Happy Thursday!

The grade three students had another great day working along with Ms. Barber, who was in teaching our class again today. The class looked festive today in their red, white and pink! The morning began with Spirit Games for Valentine's Day.

The students started off the day working on Math. During mathematics today the students had a great time reviewing concepts around units of capacity.  In today's class students partnered up and tested each other on the main concepts of the unit. While Ms. Barber conferenced one on one with students. The Math test for this unit will be held on Wednesday, February 19, 2014. A review package was sent home this week to reinforce concepts that your child has studied at school.  

In today's class the students completed the spelling test on irregular plurals. The students are expected to rewrite misspelled words ten times this weekend. 
Students attended a class Valentine's Day party for 20 minutes after our first lunch, in which they exchanged Valentine's Day cards, treats and built classroom community.

Students also went to Art, PE and French classes.

Homework: Read for 20 minutes and record in the reading log, rewrite incorrect weekly spelling words and study for Math that will be held next Wednesday.

Friday, February 14th is a PD Day at SJA.  There will be no school for students.

Monday, February 17th is Family Day.  There will be no school for students.


Please see the flyer I posted last week about the Oral Competition!  I hope all children are having a great time practising their poems at home in preparation for the in-class competition on Feb. 20th!  This is the day we will have our 3 students chosen to compete in the school competition!


St. Jude's Academy's Annual Gala Dinner is approaching and it is sure to be an evening of fun and entertainment for friends and families alike!  Mark your calenders for this event which takes place on February 22nd at 6:00pm at the Sagan Banquet Hall.  The theme for this year's Gala is 'Legends of the World' which will be reflected in the buffet diner, and the short musical performance by St. Jude's students.  A silent action, raffle tickets and a 50/50 draw will also help add to the excitement of the night. Tickets for the event are $75 for adults and $10 for children.
