Hair Donations For Cancer

We have four students in our school that will be cutting and donating their hair this Sunday to make wigs for those in our community that have lost their hair. Thank you to all of you who have made donations to this cause. If you are interested in learning about how you can help, please visit www.hairdonationottawa.com for more information.

Many Thanks

Thank you to all who came to help out with skating. It was great to have the extra hands to tie skates and supervise the students. Hopefully we'll get to do this again next year.

Language

Our focus in writing will be the descriptive form. Students will learn to clearly describe items by using the five senses. We will also learn about adjectives and generate word banks of adjectives for the five senses to aid in our writing. All writing assignments will be done in the paragraph form. We will also learn how to use criteria checklists to ensure that all parts of an assignment are completed. We will use the Tickled Pink and Green for Growth method. In reading, our focus will be making connections. We are also working on words with es, ed and ing suffixes.
