I have sent a message in Class Dojo to those that are bringing snacks on Wednesday for the class party to remind you what to send.

Remember that your child is coming to school dressed in their costume on Wednesday.

Please be aware of the younger students in the school and try not to send super gory parts of a costume or really scary masks.

Thank you.

REMEMBRANCE DAY

We have started our focus around REMEMBRANCE DAY. 

Remembrance day holds a special place in my heart as I grew up in Lacombe going through all my schooling years with Master Cpl. Byron Greff.  He was the last Canadian solider to be killed in Afghanistan.  He was an amazing person, who truly fought for what he believed in.  He stood up for the rights of others and he was honored to serve Canada as a soldier.  He was the type of soldier that was respected by all his comrades.  He was the one that was so proud when he saw children from Afghanistan flying their kites in the street because that meant they felt safe enough to play.  He will always be honored and remembered as a HERO!

A military memorial for the Canadian soldiers that fought in Afghanistan was placed in Lacombe next to Cpl Byron Greff's resting place.

Below are the links for the REMEMBRANCE DAY videos we have watched in class.  The students wanted to have access to them to watch them with their parents.  These students are truly learning what it means to honor the importance of what Remembrance Day stands for.

CHALLENGE QUESTION - OCT. 15

WHY DO YOU THINK RABBITS HAVE SUCH DIFFERENT EARS THAN HUMANS???

Hint: Think about what they need to be able to hear to live.

We will be going to the book fair tomorrow to make our wish lists.  If your child would like to bring money for tomorrow that is fine but it needs to come in a ziploc bag marked with their FULL NAME and handed in to me in the morning.  I want their full name on it because when they are shopping if they set it down it is easy to know who it belongs to.

We will also be going back to the book fair Friday morning if kids want to look at what is there before bringing in their money.

New login info for Raz kids was emailed out and sent in Class Dojo message.
