Week of May 21st

It has been so nice to enjoy the warmer weather and the sun!!!  The students are having a blast during our outdoor play with the new games painted on the ground.  They came back to school with something different to play with on the pavement!  As the weather continues to get warmer out, please dress your child in layers since it's still a bit chilly in the mornings.  If you are sending your child with sunscreen, please ensure that it is not the aerosol type as it makes the floors extremely slippery.  Your child must be able to put the sunscreen on independently before going out.


Today we finally looked at our first VIP - Mr. Chan (Leo's dad).  The kids had great ideas of what Mr. Chan did at his work.  They really had fun looking at his picture and analyzing all the things on his desk, the pictures hanging up around him and his 2 computers.  They thought Mr. Chan was a real hard worker!  We are really excited to see who is next on our list of VIPs! 

This week we do not have a word or letter of the week.  We have continued to add words and writing to our artwork using phonetic spelling.  Please review letters and sounds with your child.


Permission forms were sent home this week for the Bill Mason Centre field trip on June 6th as well as the splash pad outing on June 19th.  Please send the forms back at your earliest convenience.  If you are planning on volunteering, you MUST have a vulnerable sector check as indicated on the permission form.  We will let you know in the near future if your name was drawn from the hat to be a volunteer.  Thank you to all who are willing to come on this filed trip!


This year, we will be inviting the dads to come for a picnic to celebrate Father's Day.  We are still deciding on a date but as soon as we have more information, a note will be sent home.  We hope to see all the dads join us on this special day!

Here are some pictures from the week so far:
