Wednesday

Welcome back to school. I've been remiss in getting info out but now that we're into the swing of things I will begin posting regularly again.

Language Arts - Students are working on a story where they are emphasizing the use of descriptive vocabulary to communicate their ideas. I'm looking for a good draft from all of the students by Monday Jan 12.
We are continuing to read the novel "Mystery of the Frozen Brains" so students may be doing a bit of detective work around the house soon.
Spelling Idol V begins tomorrow

Social - Test on Chapter 4 is scheduled for Monday Jan 12th.

Notes and Reminders

Ski trip forms are out today and please get those in quickly.

A big welcome to Mrs. Friesen from the University of Lethbridge who will be teaching Science and Social to the grade fives.
