Summer uniforms are now in effect. Summer uniform consists of grey pants/shorts/skirt, the white polo t-shirt, and navy blue socks/stockings.

Uniform reminders: JK- Grade 2 gym uniforms are to be worn on Mondays and Wednesdays. After a weekend where Monday is a holiday students will return to school on the Tuesday in their dress uniform. 

Calendar- the special helpers put up the date, counts down to 100 days of school, and tells us what the weather is like today.

UOI with language focus- Today students wrote their opinion on hotdogs or hamburgers. They used an organizer to discuss which one they thought was best. They then transferred their opinion organizer into a letter to a restaurant telling the restaurant which food they liked better. 


Agenda - 

  • Spelling test sign and return
  • Spelling test Fri. 
  • Bring gardening gloves for school clean up
  • Wear Earth Day colours Friday
  • Spelling sentences due tomorrow

Math-Today we wrote our math test completing our unit on number sense and numeration patterns using skip counting and addition and subtraction of two digit numbers. 

UOI -  today we discussed our trip to the Japanese Cultural Centre. We talked about different things we saw and different patterns of fabric in the Komonos we wore. Students then decorated their own paper fans.
