We had an amazing Spirit Week last week. Tons of fun was had by all!
Reminders/Announcements:
*Please sign/initial your child's agenda daily.
*Students are asked to read nightly for at least 20 minutes (either with a parent or independently)
*The students were very happy to have brought home their Prodigy usernames and passwords on Friday.
What is Prodigy?
Prodigy is a free, Pokemon-style math game that has been proven to improve student scores
and confidence! It is aligned to the Ontario curriculum for grades 1-6, and features content
from each of the five major strands.
Prodigy was designed with three primary goals in mind:
1. To create deep engagement so students double their math practice time at home.
2. To equip teachers with reports and assessment tools to inform their instruction.
3. To provide curriculum-aligned content for free, regardless of a student’s demographic.

Christmas Theme Basket
It is that time of year again to think about our Christmas Basket Fundraiser. This year our class basket theme is ‘Coffee'. We are asking parents to send in an item to add to our basket. Items could be, ground coffee, coffee beans, coffee pods, fancy sugars, stir sticks, etc. Anything you think of that would contribute to a wonderful Coffee experience!
We hope to have our basket completed by November 13 so that it can be displayed in time for Parent-Teacher interviews on November 14; that way parents can start the bidding. Thank you!
Looking Ahead to This Week:
- Mon. Nov. 4: Hwk Week#10 sent home due Mon. Nov. 11
***Our school photocopier was not working, I'll print the hwk page at home and pass it out to students on Tuesday. The homework is also available in the "Homework Page" tab underneath the blog title and description.***
