Week ending April 28

This week at school...


On Monday, we had a special visit from Dr. Bear and a representative from the Markham Stouffville Hospital. Our local hospital serves our community as evident from the many students who told me they were born there! This annual fundraiser is coming up on May 15th. All donations to this cause are much appreciated. The envelopes are due back on May 5th.





Math 
We will continue our focus on Number Sense and Numeration, and begin our study into Fractions and Decimals this week.

Language
Students are beginning to write their second Creation Story using a comic strip or graphic novel format on Pixton. This may be a longer process as they work through the various features of this computer program. Please allow your child to also work on this at home if at all possible. 

The students are excited as we prepare for our Spring Concert on May 3rd. There will be a daytime performance (dress rehearsal) at 11:30, and an evening performance at 6:30.


Here is a glimpse of some of the amazing art work your children have beenn creating at school.

As May very quickly approaches, let's hope to see the flowers this month promises to bring! 

Thank you for your continued support!
