Posts: Week at a Glance - April 3-7

Good afternoon,

 


 

It is so hard to believe it is the last day of March! It is also hard to
believe it is spring – I know I am hoping for some more seasonal weather soon!
On Monday, we wore purple for epilepsy, and practiced our math facts during
whole school BINGO. Thursday, we had a delicious breakfast prepared by our
awesome Home and School, and celebrated our March Star Students at an assembly.
Today, some students learned about Ramadan and fasting from our student,
Mohammed, and his Mom, Karimah. As well, we are having our Friendship Friday
read aloud later this afternoon focused on “What is autism?”

Items to note:

 

-Don’t forget about our McAdam Avenue Family Library sign-out! I will get
notified if you sign up to borrow a book and will send it home with your child.
If you intend to keep the book for several weeks, please continue to sign up
via the link. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C094BAEAF28A3F5CF8-masfamily

 

-Please ensure when you are picking up your child that you meet them just on
the other side of the crosswalk we have created in front of the school.

 
As always, thank you for your support, and have a great weekend!
