Semaine de 29 mars - 1 avril

Spring is here. Yippee! Hopefully the weather will cooperate and the school yard will dry up quickly. At this point it is still cold in the mornings and the yard is a mess of snow and mud. Please make certain your child comes dressed for outdoor play.

It is a short but busy week. On Thursday March 31, we are having our workshop with Scientists in the Schools. It is very short notice but this was the only available day until late May. We need 4 parent volunteers in order to run the workshop. If you can possibly help out, please let me know ASAP by calling the school 613- 745-2119 or putting a note in your child's agenda. On Friday April 1st, we are spending the day at the Museum of Nature. The students will be divided into groups for a self guided tour. They will have a set of questions to answer about the various displays. Thank you to the parents who have already volunteered to come with us on that trip.

There is no Duotang Orange Devoirs this week.

Thank you for your support.

Semaine de 7 - 11 mars

One more week to go before the March Break. I know the students are counting the days.
We have a few students leaving for holidays during the week so I am not assigning a Reading Response in the duotang orange this week. Students are still expected to read nightly and record what they read in their Reading Log.

The biggest events of the week include a "Looking at Pictures" presentation by a volunteer from the National Gallery on Friday. There is also a special Math activity to celebrate the end of their unit on Mass and Measurement. Please make sure you complete and return the permission slip Mrs. G is sending home.

Have a wonderful March Break.
