Soooooooooo much going on! What fun!

December is one of my favourite months of the year!  I love all of the activities that happen at school and I love the excitement of the kids as they prepare for the holiday break!  Perhaps Flat Stanley will share in some of your "photo ops" over the holidays!  Reeghan shared her very own Flat Stanley fun recently with an awesome bristol board display!
Flat Stella joined Reeghan and her family for Thanksgiving dinner!  She also helped with the harvest of their garden.  She played in the first snow fall of the season AND she joined Reeghan's family for a Cirque du Soleil adventure!  Great job, Reeghan! I love how you used speech bubbles to help Stella "talk" about her adventures with you!

We've also had some more great pictures arrive from our Dr. Seuss experience!














We have another field trip coming up to the Simcoe County Museum to enhance our Social Studies units!  The trip will celebrate Victorian Christmas and Christmas Traditions.  Check this out on School Cash Online.  We'd love volunteers to join us! 

Also be sure to check out our December newsletter coming home soon.  Many activities are coming up quickly including our Primary Holiday Concert and our Gr.8 Business Fair.  We'll also have a PJ/Movie Day on the 21st, the last day of school before the holidays, AND, we'll have a class celebration with treats!  Please see the newsletter for our treat team. 

Also be sure to check out our newsletter for a great new way to practise math online.  IXL is an excellent program that lists 10 free activities you can try for all of our math strands and all of the lessons we've studied thus far.  As we dive into new lessons, I'll make suggestions on our "remind" app for what you can try at home using this tool.  I'm excited for you to see this website!  It's easy to navigate and very engaging for the kids!

I hope to see everyone for the Primary concert!  I wish you all a safe, happy holiday season too!


More Stella adventures and green pancakes too!

This certainly has been a tricky year.  But we're making the best of some tough situations!  We're learning a lot and we're maki...
