  Week of  Sept.11

Please remember to update and submit all of your online documents through parent portal.  With Terry Fox coming up and field trips starting soon all students need to have walking permission forms completed to be able to join us off school grounds.  

Monday:  We did our first quick write of the school year.  Ask your child what a quick write is and how it went for them :)

Tuesday: Spelling word leveling test   - We will have 3 levels of spelling words this year.  From common word families up to multi syllable, less common words. Based on the initial test students will start in a level but they may move up or down depending on need.  I may change their level, or you as parents, or your child themselves may request to change a level.  

Next week we will begin our weekly homework with spelling.  Your child will bring their words home to study and have a short brain assignment to complete as well.  

Photo packages come home :)
