⛅ April 19 - April 22 

Please read email from Mrs. Taylor.....

Reminder:  If you and your family formally celebrate Orthodox Easter, you are invited to wear the FORMAL Easter attire for this celebration on Monday. THIS IS NOT A CASUAL DAY


Ask your child about the learning we did this week...


Spring Concert:
The entire school continued to rehearse for the Spring Concert.  We had many opportunities to practice our singing....I must say they sounded splendid and the concert was a hit.  Thank you to everyone for ALL their hard work. 




Earth Day:
During the week we discussed ways we can show RESPECT to our earth.  Students shared ideas with friends and recorded their ideas on chart paper.  We started to draw creative pictures of the earth and will complete these drawing next week.  

Math:
The students continued to learn about fractions by using colourful blocks to make different fractions.  We extended our thinking and started to design pictures using a 100 grid.  Some students are recognizing how fractions and percentages connect!!!!

Willy Wonka performance information:

- Please be sure to mark your calendars with dates, times and dress requirements for this upcoming week as it is very important for our play to be successful.  ALL actors and actresses should have their full costume at the school on Tuesday (if there is a problem, you must email Mrs. Taylor this weekend to come up with plan B).


- All tickets will be coming home with students on TuesdayPlease be sure to put them in a safe place as you will need them to find your seats on the night of the concert.  All seats are assigned with a seat between each family group to support some social distancing.  Masks are not required, although as always, if you are more comfortable wearing a mask in a large group, you are more than welcome to do so.   Students may wear a mask while waiting for their performance time if they would like, however masks are encouraged to be removed during the performance so you can see and hear their beautiful voices! 


- Students MUST BE IN FORMAL UNIFORM (including black or navy socks with no holes in the toes!) on Thursday for school for our Dress rehearsal as well as the concert in the evening.  Please ensure your child has their white collared dress shirt, and green cardigan washed and ready for Thursday!

- All Actors and Actresses should arrive at First Alliance Church between 4:45 - 5:00 and should have already eaten.


- Students will arrive at FAC between 6:00- 6:15  in their FORMAL UNIFORM and find their teachers in the designated areas in the foyer.  Coats and shoes need to remain with the parents (students will be in socks only)


- Doors will open at 6:15 for everyone to find their seats - please ensure that everyone has used the washrooms prior to entering the sanctuary (including the students before you drop them off with their teachers)


- Concert will begin at 6:30 sharp!.  In the event that you arrive late, you will be escorted to the upper balcony in an effort to not disturb the audience or the play.  Please be EARLY!  There is parking on the far south side of the church in the event that the first parking lot seems full - there is LOTS of room for everyone on the south side.

Cultural Celebrations:

This week we learned about Easter celebrations happening this weekend and Orthodox Easter (celebrated April 24).  We decorated eggs using special symbols with meanings of love, good health and happiness. 






Social Studies:
Learning about types of Leadership traits - Students worked in groups and discussed ideas that would help make our class a better place to learn.  Suggestions such as student organizers bins, first aid containers, more books, cameras and boxes full of stress relief tools were shared with the class.  Each student then had a chance to VOTE for the best idea.  The BALLOTS will be counted on Tuesday, April 19.





Math:
