READ-A-THON

Our READ-A-THON has been an outstanding success!  Students have met in book clubs, dropped everything and read and listened to a whole host of celebrity readers today.  We are most hopeful the conversations that have run rampant about books in the school this week have also been brought home to parents and that reading is now a focus of conversation throughout the whole community!

We are hoping to collect all the Read-a-thon funds by next Friday, November 14, 2014.  Please send in the funds students raised through their reading minutes next week so we can celebrate together - thank you!!

We started our day with a Remembrance Day Assembly - it was a very thoughtful assembly.  

The students worked with Mrs. Kinsman this morning to finish their work with the map of Canada to put into their mapping journal.  Next week the LARGE map will be arriving and the students will do some more activities with Mrs. Kinsman on mapping.

We enjoyed two buddy reading times today!  That was a great week of READING!!!
