Flexibility

Well, this week has certainly provided us with opportunities to be flexible with our planning.  You should have all heard by now that the ski trip will not be taking place tomorrow for  grade 3-6 or for grade7-9 students.

Our 3-6 ski trip will be rescheduled for sometime after the 10th of February - as soon as we can coordinate something with Kinosoo we will let you know.  They have no spaces next week, and then we have students in 4-6 swimming which is why there will  be such a long delay.  If your child was not going to be able to go tomorrow but is able to go on the new date, let me know and I will be sure to send home a form for you.

Please return swimming forms and Family Literacy forms asap.

If you are practicing math facts, please give students only 3-5 seconds to get the answer.  If it takes longer than that they are skip counting to solve it, which is a great strategy, but they need these facts memorized and available in their brains QUICKLY!  (I promise it is worth it for when they are trying to do math in grade 5 and 6 - your work now makes things SO much easier then.)

We will have a spelling test tomorrow:)
