What’s New in One and Two? Week of April 4 – 8, 2011 *Reminders – Lunch Lady orders are due back on Wednesday, April 6 - MTYP field trip on Wednesday, April 6 (10:00 to 11:00 am) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WELCOME BACK! I hope that all of you had a fun and (somewhat) restful Spring Break. Homework packages are coming home today. I have added a math page for the grade ones. Everything else stays the same – home on Monday and due back on Friday. Please don’t forget to initial the bottom of the coloured front page before your child returns the package. FLAT STANLEY As part of our next social studies unit about Canada, we will be working on a project called “Flat Stanley”. Stanley Lambchop is a character in a book by Jeff Brown. He is squished flat by a bulletin board and has some wonderful adventures. One of his adventures is when he is folded up and mailed for a visit with friends. Our class will be making their own “Flat” people and mailing them to someone in Canada for a visit. What I need from the parents is two things – 1) The name and address of someone you know, who lives in another city in Canada. It can be a relative or a friend, but they need to be willing to participate and respond to our postcards from Winnipeg. 2) One postcard with a picture from Winnipeg. If you could please send the postcard and the name and address (on a separate piece of paper) to school this week, that would be wonderful. Please do not write the address on the postcard. We will be doing that at school together. If you do not have anyone to correspond with, please let me know and I will find someone for your child. Thanks for your help!
