Rainy Friday

Boys and girls, you did a great job performing at our assembly today. Thanks to the few parents who were able to come and watch.

Have a great weekend!

Monarch Butterflies

Thanks again to Mr. Wilson for sharing the process of tagging Monarch butterflies with us. It is an experience we will never forget.

The slide is finished!

After two days of not using the playground, the children were very excited today to use the brand new slide! It was the most popular activity on the playground.

Reminders for Friday:

• Hand in your homework duotangs.
• Assembly at 9am.
• Last day to order yearbooks at $50 (the price increases to $60 on Monday).
• Wear your favorite color.
• Reading buddies tomorrow.

Have a great night!

Wonderful Wednesday!

Today was a much better day, boys and girls. Thank you for trying so hard. We got a lot done tooday, and it looks like they got the new slide done after school. Recess should be fun tomorrow!

Drama

Elementary Drama club starts tomorrow (Wednesday) from 3-4pm for children in grades K-5.

There is also soccer tomorrow night from 5:30-6:30 at the club for students in K-4.

Tiring Tuesday!

There was lots of excitement in the class today as they worked all day on the playground. Nothing like some heavey machinery to distract a class!

Boys and girls in kindergarten, I was disappointed with your behavior today. A lot of you had a hard time paying attention and were uncooperative, both in the class and at recess. Lets try for a better day tomorrow, please.

Remember that tomorrow is gray day in kindergarten. Please work on some of your homework tonight and review your sounds. Does anyone know all of the sounds that we have learned so far?

First week of Fall

Welcome back to school for our first week of fall.

Everyone should have brought home their homework duotang tonight. Please do a little each night, and return it to school by Friday (or earlier if you finish before then). The extra little bit of reinforcement at home really makes a difference!

Kindergarten, don't forget to practice your sounds every night. Can you make any words with the sounds we have learned?

Grade one and two, don't forget to read a book every night and record it in your reading log.

On Friday, we will be having an assembly at 9am. Parents are welcome to come watch if you wish. The kindergarten children will be performing the poems and rhymes that we have learned this month.

On Wedenesday, the Elementary Drama Club will be starting from 3-4pm for students interested in grades K-5. See you on the stage!

For kindergarten, we are almost finished our unit on colors. Try to wear the color of the day if you can:

• Tuesday: Purple
• Wednesday: Gray
• Thursday: Brown
• Friday: Wear your favorite color.

Fantastic Friday!

Great job today, boys and girls. Not one bee was moved out of the beehive!

You worked really well with your reading buddies today, and we saw and heard about lots of neat stuff in show and tell. We will try to have show and tell once a month all year, so keep thinking of interesting things to bring in.

For kindergarteners, remember that Monday is blue day, and try to wear something blue.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Thrilling Thursday!

I can't believe the end of the week is almost here again already. Get a good sleep tonight - a lot of you were tired today. You must have ran too hard at soccer last night!

Remember that we have Show and Tell tomorrow. You may bring one thing from home to show the class and tell us all about it. Show and Tell will be at 9am for my homeroom, and at about 11:30am for kindergarten.

Please return you homework duotangs tomorrow.

A great sunshiny yellow day!

Thanks to everyone who remembered to wear yellow today.

Congratulations to Hardin Kearney who was chosen as student of the week. He is always a hard worker, and helps those aroun him. Great job, Hardin!

Great job in music class today. Mr. Steeves said you were very well behaved. You make me proud!

Reminders:

There is soccer tonight from 5:30-6:30 at the Club for children in K-4.

Friday we are having Show and Tell in K-2 Jones and in Kindergarten.

Next Wednesday, the elementary drama club will start for students interested in grades K-5, from 3-4 pm on the stage. Look for a notice to come home tomorrow or the next day.

Welcome to our Blog

Good afternoon K-2 Jones. Welcome to our Blog! I will update our blog at least once a week with any new events for that week, such as early dismissals, movies, show and tell, and so on. It will be another great means of communication between the school and home. Have a great week!
