Passing the Torch

The Grade 4's did a great job of introducing the Grade 3's to the Beth Israel Campus. Each Grade 3 student received a personalized card from a Grade 4 student. BI's Shannon kindly had a treat for all 100 students! Thank-you to all.

Have you been checking the blog for the secret riddle/question? If you know the answer, let me know tomorrow.

Activity Stations

We had a great day. We prepared our invitations for the Grade 3 Orientation tomorrow. We had a two period block for a variety of visual, spatial and puzzle challenges. We worked cooperatively with 2D & 3D activities. Great Stuff! "e"

Scrapbooks and folders "ss?" went home today. Be sure to admire all the highlighted work from the past year. The criteria sheet for report cards (stapled to folder) has some important information about how we arrive at the Grade 4 marks and final averages.

Happy Father's Day, Dad!

SPLASHDOWN EXTRAVAGANZA - what a wonderful time we had yesterday! - playing, sliding and enjoying ourselves in the sunshine. I even rode the "Black Hole" twice!! - thanks for your support, kids! We said our fond farewells to Abba. Thank-you to Sally for organizing the details of the day. "cc"

All Language Arts duotangs and workbooks are going home today. You'll be proud of how much lovely work the students have done this year. The Journals are especially precious. If there is incomplete work, the student was either away, or we didn't get time to complete the assignments. Workbooks can serve as excellent review on quiet days in the summer.
