Hello families!
I hope you are enjoying our changing season! It sure is feeling more
like fall with cool nights and cooler days.
Here are some reminders and homework items for this week:
15
minutes of
French reading
each night: Practice makes
progress! Research shows that students who read at least 15 minutes a day
make accelerated progress in reading. We have been exploring the classroom
library and many students have discovered small chapter-book series they
really enjoy reading. Please remember to have your child
record
the minutes they read each night in their agenda
.
The
annual
DFS catalogue fundraiser
packets were set home
last week. Please help us work together to fundraise for various PSS
initiatives!
If
you have not yet sent in your
$40 fee for school supplies
,
please do as soon as possible.
Student
Council elections
for classroom representatives will be
held Monday, September 24th. Students interested in running should prepare
a short speech for Monday explaining what qualities would make
them a good leader. Student Council will meet every Thursday at noon.
Student
Vote
:
Students will also have the opportunity to "vote" in the
Provincial Election Monday, September 24th. Student Vote is an
organization that encourages the education and participation of youth in
the democratic progress. We will be discussing election news and issues of
interest to them throughout the week. We encourage you to discuss
with your child at home as well.
