Hey everyone!
Well, we managed to make it through our first field trip! Thank you to those parents who were able to join us. All the Grade 2s would also like to thank Ms. Nevels for doing such an amazing job teaching us about the battle between the Blackfoot and Cree tribes, and students had the chance to sketch out what they thought the landscape looked in the past. I managed to take a few pictures, but then left my camera cord at home!! I’ll get them up later tonight I promise!
Next week, on September 23rd, we will be joining the whole school in our annual Terry Fox Walk to Nicholas Sheran park. There, we will meet the other 3 west side schools, do a lap or two, and then head back to MMH. Thanks to Nicole D, Terra T., Jamie W., and April H. who are able to join us right at 8:30am. If anyone else is able to come, please join! Younger siblings are welcome to join provided they can keep up! Or, grab a spot on the grass at the lake and cheer us as we march on. Please have your child wear their MMH T-shirt or school colours (blue and gold) for that morning of the 23rd.
I just wanted to take a moment to send out a reminder about allergies in our classroom. It is very important to me as I am sure it is you, to ensure safety for all students at school. In our class we have a SEVERE allergy to NUTS. The same allergy (and others) are also present in other grade 2 rooms. With the changes to lunch programs and routines we now eat together in our classes and it is very important that we are NOT sending nut based snacks etc. We’ve had a few discussions in class about how the students can be Allergy Aware both in school and out on the playground. I appreciate your support in making our classroom a safe environment for everyone. Thank you for your understanding. While we cannot guarantee a Nut Free environment, we can promote the fact that we are Allergy Aware.
Keep an eye out for a note going home next week regarding Star Student / Special Friday routine for Grade 2B, along with your child’s date.
Notice the new Student Challenge on the side?! While the Student Challenge Question is up on the blog, students can bring in their answers on a scrap piece of paper to earn stickers for their sticker book (a very big deal in Room 8!)
We are still collecting shoeboxes with lids! Thanks to those who already donated some!
I think that’s it for now…Thanks 2B for an awesome week! Have a fantastic weekend!
