International Day - Day 30

Good Evening Families! 

Please read all the information below to get the latest scoop on our day! 

Reminders

- Polar Expressions is back again this year and they are looking for students to have the chance to publish poems and short stories in an upcoming book. Information sheets have been sent. Students who are interested in this competition can do so on their own time, as class time will not be given. The deadline for poems is November 29^th and the deadline for short stories is December 6^th.

- After care invoices have been sent out. All after care payments were due today, yesterday. 

- Casual Day forms have been sent home. If you would like your child to participate, please complete the form and send in the $20 cash to me no later than October 25th.

- Winter uniforms started today, Tuesday, October 15th. All students in Grade 4-6 will need to have all pieces of the winter uniform with them everyday. The winter uniform consists of SJA gray pants/skirt, navy blue socks and black dress shoes (which they already have), a white button up long sleeve crested SJA shirt, a navy blue SJA crested sweater/sweater vest, an academic and house colour tie (to be worn every Friday) and an SJA crested blazer. Please be sure to label all pieces! Blazers must be worn during transitions and around the school, but can be taken off while in class and during lunch. If you do not have any of these pieces please contact Alpa as soon as possible at alpa@multiformcanada.com.

Please note that the uniform store will be closed from October 15th to October 24th. If you need to purchase any uniforms please make sure all orders are placed by October 10th 2019 by email: alpa@multiformcanada.com or online www.multiformcanada.com.

Take a look at what we accomplished today!

Inquiry into Math:

I will be offering a re-test tomorrow, Friday, October 18th for students who would like to improve their grade. Please let me know if you would like your child to write the retest by writing a note in your child’s agenda.

A review package will not be given for the retest, but your child has many resources that they can use to help them study:
- Math Makes Sense textbook
- Math workbook
- Notes taken in class
- Anchor charts posted on previous blogs

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

We will begin our next unit on Monday, October 21, Unit 6 - Measurement.

A message about Caribou Math from Mrs. Haag:

Dear Parents and Students,

The first Caribou contest will be written tomorrow, Wednesday, October 16th at 7:30 am in Room 39. Students must arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of the test. They will need their own laptops. They are allowed 60 minutes to complete the test. No calculators are allowed. 

See you bright and early tomorrow.
