Congratulations to Paige and Sydney for winning the recycling poster competition.  They were awarded prizes from the North Renfrew Landfill Operations Board for their efforts. 

Math

We are just completing a unit on data management. Over the last few weeks, students have constructed and interpreted a variety of graphs including bar graphs, pictographs and tally charts. Next week we will begin a unit on measurement. With your child, please practise measuring objects in centimetres with a ruler, as well as, estimating heights and lengths in cm and metres. 

Character Education Assembly

Yesterday we attended a character education assembly to celebrate the character trait of "respect".  Congratulations to Ezra and Derek who consistently demonstrate respect!

Character Education Assembly

This month we have been focusing on the character trait of respect.  To recognize a couple of students from each class for their respectful behaviour, we will be having an assembly on Thursday, November 28th at 2:30.  A few classes will be preforming songs that contain messages about being respectful.  All are welcome to attend!

Donate your spare change!

On Wednesday, November 27th, students have been asked to bring in spare change to donate to Mackenzie's "Me to We" initiative.  The funds raised will go to help build a school "brick by brick".  Every $20 raised will purchase one brick.

It is Wacky Hair Day on Friday, November 29, 2013!  Happy styling!

Interviews

Thank you to all of the parents who came to the interviews on Thursday and Friday. The students were excited to share what they have been working on. I am proud of all of their hard work and the progress they have made. 

Please return their assessment books once you have had a chance to review them.
