Hello families,

 

I hope you all had a relaxing long weekend and spent some time reflecting on everything that you are grateful to have! Here are the important items and updates for this week:



Reading 15 minutes per night in French - practice makes progress!
Practicing basic addition/subtraction facts (Using Xtra-math.org or flash cards)
This week students are being asked to choose a leader they would like to present for their end-unit project. The will have some time to do a bit of research and will be expected to write paragraph explaining what makes them a leader. Students are welcome to choose someone related to their interests (musicians, actors, athletes, artists, etc) but should ensure they demonstrate a variety of leadership qualities (resilience, courage, positivity, etc) and can explain how they have had a positive impact on their community. 
We will be collecting toonies for the Purple Pinkies for Polio Campaign until October 19th. A donation of just $2 can provide the vaccine for a child in an at-risk country.

Please return all library books to exchange on Tuesday.
Wednesday our school will be voting to elect our Student Council President. Best of luck to all the candidates!
