Wonderful Dioramas!

The students worked this afternoon to create desert diorama's and they are AWESOME.  Great job students and Mr. Feil!

I thoroughly enjoyed all of the interviews that we had last night and am looking forward to the last few tonight.  Please make sure that you let us know if there are ever any questions.  You don't have to wait for interviews to share questions or concerns with us.

Spelling test tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing you

By now you all have your interview times scheduled with Mr. Feil and I for Wednesday or Thursday, I am really looking forward to having the time to talk with you about your child.  We also have an assembly on Wednesday at 9:50 that parents are welcome to attend.

I was away today and will also be away on Thursday - another busy week!

Thank you for dressing your children for the weather - they sure have fun outside when they are warm enough!

Last call

Last call for shoe boxes for science.  Please have them here for science class tomorrow!  Also your children should have been tracking their activities for the last week for health class.  Ask them about the tracker they have to fill in and please help them complete it if they have forgotten what they did for activity while we had our LONG weekend.

We met this morning to schedule Parent Teacher Interviews and a form with your time will come home Friday with the report card.  Please call the office if you need to make changes.  Thank you to those of you who returned the form, it really helps us when we try to set the interviews up.  If you have children in grade 7-12 they did not receive a scheduled time, teachers will be in the gym for the evening and you can go in to see whomever you like when they are available.  Mr. Feil and I will be together for all the grade 3/4 interviews.

Enjoy the snow while there is still only a little bit of it!

It's cooling off

Please remember to send your child a pair of mittens and a winter jacket when they leave in the morning, some of them are finding it really cold outside at recess because they are not dressed properly.

Mr. Feil has asked students to bring a shoe box for science - they will need to have them here on Monday, November 14th.  If you don't have one, stop at a shoe store, they are usually happy to help you out!

Parent teacher interview forms were attached to the Monday note yesterday, please return them to the school asap so we can schedule all the interviews.

Enjoy your four day weekend!

November News

Wow, here we are already in November.  Time has certainly flown by for me.

A big thank you to the moms and dads who joined us on Monday for Halloween.  Your support and help make fun activity days like that so much easier for me, and the students all love to see other parents in action in the school.

As you may know, the students have a science test next Wed. (Nov. 9th)  The focus will be on habitats - where the plants and animals they have studied can be found.  They also have interviews to complete for health by next Wed.  They could  even do them over the phone if they want to call grandparents or other relatives.

Tuesday at 10:45 is our school wide Remembrance Day service - please feel free to join us, and to take a moment sharing with your child what the day signifies for you.

I am busy working on report cards this weekend, and am looking forward to meeting with all of you at Parent Teacher Interviews on November 23 and 24.  Interview scheduling information will come home next week, please be sure to send it back promptly.

Have a great weekend.
