Nov. 28th

Yikes it is hard to believe it will be Dec. 1 on Monday, it is such a busy but wonderful time of the year!

Div.  3 and 13 are promoting Fairview's Annual Toy Drive.  We created posters for the school and each morning 2 members from our class make an announcement.  For the next two weeks students are encouraged to bring toys or cash donations for the Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Christmas Hamper.  We hope to prove that 'Little People Can Make A Big Difference'!

Div. 13 is making good progress with their Christmas song but please continue to practise 'What's This' in your child's poetry book. Please use the music link so they remember where they need to sing.  christmas-concert-class-resources.html   Wear red and a Santa hat for both the dress rehearsal (Dec. 9) and the concert (Dec. 10).   Please label your child's Santa hat and send it in on Monday, Dec. 8th.  lf you do not have access to a Santa hat let me know as Dr. Saul does have a few extras.

Thank you to all the parents who helped out with skating by driving, tying skates and joining us on the ice.  It was amazing to see the improvement of so many students in less than an hour!  Everyone was happy and excited to have had this opportunity.  Thanks for making it possible!

On Thursday Dan the Recycling Man came and reviewed how we should be recycling both at home and at school.  The students enjoyed his presentation and should be able to help you with this important task.  We have a pack in pack out policy in our classroom as soft plastics can not be recycled at school.

Conferences are this week Dec. 4th in the afternoon (11:30 dismissal) and Dec. 5th all day.  Please be sure to sign up on the parent portal.  The conference will be a  30-minute commitment (1st 15 minutes with your child in the hall to celebrate and go through their work and then 15 minutes with me and your child to discuss their report card and set goals for our next term).  If none of these times work for you please email and let me know when you are available and we can make arrangements. 

Club RED Calendars need to be returned by Dec. 3rd.  Hopefully Div. 13 has done lots of reading for this past month!  Students seemed to really enjoy learning all the words of the day and have definitely expanded their vocabulary.  Our Club RED Celebration will be Dec. 18th.
