Loutet 2017

Here are a few photos from our visit to Loutet Farm on Wednesday:

Week of May 1

Dear Parents,

Yesterday we had our first KM Club Ribbon Ceremony! Each child in our class was able to receive their 10Km ribbon, with some also earning 25 and one student even getting 40km. Great start!

A reminder that Scholastic orders are due by Friday May 5.

School Supply List- the Edupac order form went home with students yesterday, and if you are planning to order through Edupac, orders need to be back by May 12.

May 10- we wil have another opportunity to visit Loutet Farm. It will be first thing in the morning, so please help your child to be on time.

Pencils- thank you to the parents who have been able supply some extra pencils, but we could still use some more if anyone has some.

We have been looking at some Poetry recently, if you are looking for book ideas when you take your child to the library. We will be having our visit soon with the librarian to talk about the Summer Reading Program.

This coming Monday May 8 is a Pro-d, so there will be no classes in session.

Thank you.

Sincerely, Mrs. Kam

Dear Parents,

It was a little soggy, but we got a good re-introduction to the Loutet Farm last week, getting a chance to measure some plant growth as well as matching seeds to what they grow into.

In Math, we have started a unit on graphing and data collection.

In Social Studies, we have recently started having a once a week visit with one of our Family of Schools teacher leader to work with us on making some connections between people and their environment, including some stories of the First Nations.

As part of Reading Awareness Week, the school has been host to a book sale, and we have also participated in a school wide story write in which each class contributes a paragraph. Today, we also did a teacher swap- I went to read a story with Ms. Tozer's class, and she came to read a story to our class!

Km Club is now up and running and hopefully we will continue to get more weather like we did today!

Ecology Center- a yellow form came home with information about an upcoming field trip. We will require parent drivers, so any help on that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kam

Dear Parents,

Welcome back after Spring Break! We have many exciting things coming up.

First, we are now hosting an incubator with eggs that hopefully in a few weeks will result in some hatched chicks. It is a wonderful experience, as students who saw them last year can tell you.

Garden Visit- we will be popping in to Loutet Farm this coming Wednesday at 11:20 (for 30-40 minutes). It has been suggested we have a second adult if possible. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested or available.

KM Club- we will be kicking this off this week with a short assembly on Tuesday and our first run starting on Thursday afternoon. KM Club will be on Mondays,Tuesdays, and Thursdays so please help your child to dress in appropriate footwear (and clothing) particularly on those days. As well, as the weather gets warmer, you may want to send your child with a hat, water bottle or sunscreen already applied.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kam

Week of March 6

Dear Parents,

A big thank you to all for attending our 3 way conferences this week. We enjoyed hearing from both you and your children!

A reminder that tomorrow is PJ Day, and the Do Good group is also helping to collect toonies and loonies for Finn for cancer research.

Zumba- students really enjoyed, perhaps she will be able to come again next year.

We hope you all have a safe and enjoyable Spring Break with your families and we look forward to an exciting new term!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kam
