Back in Action!

I hope you all had a restful and happy Thanksgiving. We had a really great day back at school today. We started a great Halloween writing project in Language Arts and talked and wrote more about the battle between the Blackfoot and the Cree. Grade 2 history experts in the making!

It is Fire Safety Week! Thank you to all of you who have helped your child complete the fire escape plans that came home last week. Please send those in this week if you have not done so. I find it to be a really great discussion as a class and the students always feel great knowing they have an escape plan.

Thank you to all of our parent volunteers who came with us on our trips to the Fort and Galt Museum last week! We had a great time at both sites and I am so impressed with all the facts the students share with me during Social Studies.
