Jake, Rachel and Nathan were our Scientist this week. We learned a great way to clean pennies, how to create bubbles and heat and a different way to make elephant toothpaste!
Next Thursday, June 15th we are bowling in the afternoon. Please sign up and send in the $2 (with your child's shoe size) as soon as possible. We have enough drivers so will probably drive some of Mrs. Robert's students as they are short a couple spots. Thanks to the Fairview PAC for helping to pay for both of these special activities.
I sent out an email about chicken pox but I just wanted to remind you that the boy from Mrs. Robert's class had been vaccinated and was at school while he was contagious. Unfortunately you are contagious before you even know you have it and because we often combine classes I thought it was important for you to know and to keep a look out. A fever is often a first sign.
3 classes (Mrs. Robert's and our grade 2/3 and Mrs. Hutchin's grade 3) have planned some cool math stations focusing on Geometry, Fractions and Measurement. Over the next few weeks we will be rotating from class to class. This week Div. 7 worked on fractions with me. If you could discuss and review these at home that would be great e.g.) you are having pizza - how much of the pizza did you each eat? 2/8ths or 3/10ths?
We also started new explorations stations. Ask your child about Lego Math? Our Body Science - we have some pretty cool stuff at this station!
Volunteer Tea on Tuesday, June 13th in the afternoon, hopefully you can make it. I want to thank all of you for your support and your help this year. I have felt very lucky to have such a great group of parents!!
Next Friday is Fun Day hopefully we will have nice weather!
