 Week of DECEMBER 2 (Wow! How did it become December?!?)

We have been invited by CCHS to see a sneak peak of part of their theater presentation Matilda.  We will be doing this the afternoon of Thursday, December 12.  Students will need to be dressed for walking and we will need to walk quickly to make it to the high school on time and return in time for buses.  

Please complete the online permission form for your child here (or by following in the link in the email sent you you):  5B Matilda permission

Monday: Math Weekly #6 comes home

Tuesday: Reading Comprehension: Green eyed tree frog due

Story writing starts.  This full length story will be due before our Christmas break.  It will be an ongoing project in December.  With longer projects like this one it is extra important for students to keep up on the smaller steps each day to get finished successfully on time.  Please talk to your child about their progress and look forward to reading these great stories over Christmas :)

Wednesday:  First computational artifact (Transformers or Basketball coding) is due

* Thank you to everyone that has already filled out the form for our Norquay ski dates-  Friday’s January 31, February 14 and 28th 2025.  An even bigger thank you to the three parents that have emailed me about volunteering.  We need at least  4  volunteers each day, so please get your RCMP checks updated and let me know if you can join us (you get to ski while the kids are in lessons :)

If you have not yet done it, here's the Norquay form link again: 

The Norquay ski hill requires information from you ahead of time to plan for instructors and rentals.  Please discuss with your child if they want to ski or snowboard, then follow this link and fill it out as soon as possible.

We're looking forward to a year of writing and receiving letters from these wonderful community volunteers!  (as always, families, you can also check out the pictures from your child's Google Classroom account by logging in to Chrome as them and opening our Smart Cookies Classroom :)
