Art - This week the students got to participate in placing their handprints on the school mural created by Ryan Willert. The mural will be presented to the parents by an elder on November 28th during an evening celebration. More details to follow next week.
Math - We are continuing to work through our Number Sense Unit. We have completed our addition and subtraction and are currently working on rounding numbers to the tens, hundreds and thousands place.
Social - The Amazing Race continues across Canada! The students embarked on the Arctic Region and participated in a class competition of Arctic Games. We tried the knuckle hop and the one foot high kick. They did amazing and showed us their determination, strength, endurance and agility while trying these new events.
Reminders
Student-Led Conferences - Please mark Friday November 15th at 4:00 on your calendars as this is the day that conference manager opens to book conferences. Please remember that only a limited amount of people are able to book at certain time slots and drop-ins are not easily accomodated. If you need a specific time then please book early as our times fill up fast!
Pack In and Pack Out! - Starting this year, we have been attempting to reduce our SVS ecological footprint by moving towards a “Pack In and Pack Out” philosophy. Once a student has eaten their lunch or snack, the packaging of that item will be put back into lunch kits and returned home for recycling. In continuing to support this positive change, please provide a locking baggie for items such as apple cores, yogurt tubes etc. The baggie will be returned home with the student each day for composting at home and then could be added back into the lunch kit for the next day. Help us make a difference!
Materials Needed - Please continue to bring in any unwanted shoe and/or cereal boxes for an upcoming art project.
