AR:
  • Parents please remind your children to try to read for at least 15 minutes a day to reach their AR goals but most importantly to improve literacy.  Children who read tend to do much better with writing and with general comprehension in all subject areas.  Our goals were due last week and I extended it over the break but we are struggling to meet them!

Hello families,


We had a great day in grade 4/5!  I was so impressed with the students today and their maturity.  We worked on our 5 paragraph Halloween essay and they shocked themselves at how long they could sustain their writing (30 minutes).  They did lunch prayer on their own as I was unable to be there and they were very respectful to our guest teacher! They made me so proud!
