Nov 23/18

We have had a fun, busy week.  Many students participated in the different Spirit Week special days!
These pictures show Div. 9 from twins, to 80's and pyjamas!

I changed all the Just Right Reading (JRR) books this week.  Please help your child remember to bring these books back to school daily.  Thanks!

Scholastic will be coming home next week. Thanks to Cam's mom for organizing these.  If you want to purchase any books as gifts please just let me know and then I will make sure to give them directly to you.

A big thank you to Will's mom for all her help in the classroom today.  It is very appreciated.

Over the weekend if you have a chance please try IXL growing patterns - Gr. 2 - D2 and Gr. 3 R-2,  If it is too easy/difficult, you can move up/down accordingly.  If time explore other pattern or place value activities.  If needed please give your child some initial help but then have them work independently.

Christmas concert tickets are now on sale.  Please check the portal announcement for further details and information.  Dominic the Donkey is our song and the words are in your child's poetry book this week.  Please have them practice as there are a lot of words and they are tricky!  If you want the tune please go to this link  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYlvfX3nwlc    and then go The Christmas Book on the right side and find the karaoke for Dominic!


Kids Helping Kids Christmas Hamper information went home on Thursday.  Please help Fairview to make a big difference to children and families that aren't as fortunate.

Conferences are this next week on Thursday afternoon and Friday.  Remember that there is an 11:00 dismissal on Thursday.  Please arrive on time for your scheduled appointment - you start in the hall with your child to go through and celebrate their learning. After that you will spend another 15 minutes meeting with your child and I.  Your total conference time is 30 minutes even though you only signed up for a 15 minute time slot.  If you need clarification please just ask or email.

*The grade 6 and 7 students are using this Craft Fair as a major fundraiser for their camp fees so they would appreciate the whole school's support. They are making a lot of really amazing products.
