Monday, October 19th.

Good Morning,
  I hope you all had a great weekend.  The snow made for an interesting day of outdoor sports and recreation on Saturday.  It also reminded me of some buts and bolts regarding the classroom.  Students should wear boots or muck shoes on days where the playground will be messy.  It is as equally important to make sure your child has a pair of indoor shoes for school too.  Feel free to advise your child to leave a pair at school.  This way you don;t have to deal with the back and forth each day.

  This Thursday, Laura Brines will be coming in to speak about her work with the Mad River Path Association.  This is the start of our people making a difference unit.  We have invited a variety of people to come in and speak to our class about how they try and make a difference.  Once the presenter is finished, the students will have two write about what they learned.

  On Friday, We will be chatting with our friends in Canada.  We will be discussing the book Duck! Rabbit! and presenting our opinion pieces about the book.

Below is a video of a new homework procedure and expectation.  The new forms are in your child's reading bag today.



Have a great week.

Peace,
Tommy
