HAPPY BIRTHDAY!          Jace              September 17

SENSATIONAL SCIENCE  

We have started our first science unit about Our Senses.  We went for a “Senses Walk” last week and we used our senses to explore the neighbourhood around the school.  We will be working on a variety of activities, such as – smelly jars, feely socks, shaker eggs, painting rainbows and having a taste test.

CLASSROOM HELPERS

We have a number of adult helpers in our classroom.  The first is a U of W student teacher named Lea Hosegood.  She will be in our classroom on Wednesdays and for various blocks of time throughout the school year.  The second is Mrs. Edwards.  She is an Educational Assistant in our classroom.  The third is Mrs. Woods.  She is a longtime volunteer to our school and will be here for Mondays and Fridays.  (P.S.  She is also my mom.)  We are very blessed to have so many enthusiastic and caring people in our class.

FROGGY BAGS

The students are doing a very good job at remembering their Froggy Bags every day.  The bags should hop back and forth from school to home each day and be brought into the classroom each morning.

PICTURE DAY                                                                                     

School pictures will be taken this Wednesday, September 18.  I promise not to do anything too messy that day - (gluing or painting).  You may want to send a comb or a brush in their backpacks.
