The Fun Fair last night was a lot of FUN!  Thank you to the PAC for hosting such a great event.  It was wonderful to see so many families out last night.

Homework:  - home reading  - French if not complete  - Fraction package if not complete  - No school on Monday Have a wonderful weekend!

Today we focused on getting caught up on work that we were behind on.  We spent some time making sure that our corrections tote was all emptied and finished.  This afternoon we carried on working on our pointillism art.  These should be finished by the end of the week or will be homework on the weekend. Homework tonight:  - home reading  - library tomorrow  - gym tomorrow  - Fun Fair Thursday  - PJ day Friday  - fraction packages...we will start marking tomorrow (full package should be done by the end of the day) Have a good night! 

I was so glad to be back in the classroom today. The children will be having a quiz on the digestion system on Friday.  They should all be bringing home their packages to study this week. Today I had the students write me a journal entry about our class trips to the food bank and the CFC.  I look forward to reading all about them, as I was so sad to have missed them.
