Agendas & Home Reading
Today your child will bringing home their Agenda.  Our school's Handbook has been published in the begining of the Agenda (pages 2 - 8).  Please take a moment to review the information provided.

Student entries will be brief with additional information being provided on the blog.

Home Reading duotangs will be coming home today.  We do appreciate how busy family life can be, but encourage families to read with their child as much as possible, with our goal being 5/7 nights a week for 15-20 minutes.  Although your child is now becoming a proficient, independent reader, they continue to benefit from your support and modelling.  Our  class will focus on comprehension, working on summarizing main events and characters.

Scholastic Book Orders
Our class will be offering Scholastic Book Clubs to our families.  We will be giving out Lucky, Interactive, and Special Offer forms once a month from September to June. This is a "no pressure" offer to anyone who might be interested in purchasing age appropriate books and/or educational games and gifts.   Any orders that are placed help us to earn free items for our classroom.  If you decide to place an order, please return the completed form and payment to Ms. Pawliuk or Ms. Reilly by the due date.  Cheques may be made payable to Scholastic Canada.  Orders usually take 1-2 weeks to arrive.  

Have a great night.    See everyone tomorrow!
