Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a very restful and warm Thanksgiving. We did a number of activities to talk about the holiday and share what we are thankful for. What a great group for knowing how important friends and family are!

Reminder that there is no school on Monday or Tuesday! See you back at M.M.H. on Wednesday the 16^th.

There will be no spelling this week with the short week.

 

 

Pumpkin Math

Happy Fall! We are almost half way through October already! It is the time for pumpkins and all things orange! In grade 2 we spend a day or two working with math and pumpkins. We explore measuring circumference, mass and height. We also problem solve and do a lot of comparing. Can you please send a pumpkin to school with your child October 22^nd. Please do not send them well in advance as they tend to rot quite quickly. Please send a pumpkin that your child can easily carry independently. Thank you!

 

 

Halloween

Our Halloween parade will be on October 31 at 12:40 in the afternoon. You are more than welcome to come and watch the action. As a school we ask that parents please do not send your child to school in costume. Have the costume in their back pack ready to go for a quick change after lunch. We ask that parents keep the costumes at school very simple and easy for little ones to handle on their own. Please keep any weapons, super fancy makeup etc. at home and ready for the big Halloween night! Thank you for help with this!
