September 16/21

Division 11 has had a busy week.  I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all of your children and they have made great progress in learning all the new routines.  

You'll notice that your child has brought home their Poetry & More Books today.  Please read the letter in this duotang explaining how this works, read over our first songs and also help your child complete the special math sheet 'Numbers about Me' before returning it on Monday morning. This is their homework for the weekend. Thanks for your support with this.

Name Boggle!  For this special literacy activity we use the special helper of the day's names and try to make as many words as possible from their names. Some of you may have already received a large piece of paper with your child's name on it, if you could please try as a family to find more words that would be great.  If you look for rhyming words that helps and is great practice. Then send it back for your child to share with the class.  Then I will keep these for their memory books.

* Thank you so much for promptly sending in all the school supplies.

* Just a reminder that both the purple verification form and the purple Getting Acquainted form should be completed and returned a.s.a.p. 

* Inside shoes are needed especially as the rainy weather arrives.  Please also submit $7.00 for planners either on the parent portal or by sending in cash (in a labelled ziplock).  Also if possible could you please send in headphones/ear buds that your child can use in the class as we use iPads for a station at both Reader's Workshop and Math. Please label these with your child's name.  Thanks. 

*Remember our outside door and windows are open so please send another layer of clothing to make sure they are warm enough.  

Calendar on the top of this blog please check regularly.  

Upcoming events for these last couple weeks of September are:

Sept. 24th pm - Terry Fox Run  (this is the 40th year since Terry started his run!) - Due to Covid we will just be doing this on school grounds in the afternoon. This is a Tie Dye for Terry so if possible please wear something tie dyed.  This will be rain or shine so please ensure your child has appropriate clothing/footwear and a water bottle.  Thanks in advance for any donation this is such an important cause.  To donate please go to Fairview Elementary Fundraising Link:    http://www.terryfox.ca/FairviewElementaryMapleRidge

Sept. 27th - Student Photos 

Sept. 28 & Sept. 29th Truth and Reconciliation - Wear Orange
