Learning Intentions for our Day...

  • We did a few rounds of Daily 5 today. Some of us started book clubs, read in small groups or made a choice: Read to Self, Read to Someone, or Work on Writing. 
  • The Grade 4s had French with Mr. Strand while the Grade 3s learned about similes and personification. We read a book and brainstormed
  • In Math, some of us did a "Show What You Know Subtraction" sheet with and without regrouping independently.  


Reminders: 
  • Wine Fund raising is ongoing
  • Our new math learning intention is now posted in PowerSchool. It will be assessed and posted on Friday, January 31st 
  • Swimming forms were sent home today. Please return form by: February 11, 2020. Swimming dates for Kindness Pod: February 24 -28, 2020 inclusive 
  • Swimming Volunteer sign up can be found here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080B4BAEA929AA8-swimming3
  • "Who Do You Tell?" permission forms were sent home today. Please return them as soon as possible. 

Warm Feet and Heads 
  • This week, the Eric Harvie Peace Ambassadors are collecting warm, new or gently used, adult sized socks and hats for Calgary’s homeless.  After our recent cold spell, supplies are low at our city’s shelters and we want to help to fill them back up before the next cold snap hits.  There are collection bins and a display in the hub where students can drop off donations during ignite time each day. 

    Please ensure:

    *socks are adult sizes
    *gently used socks and hats are washed and do not have any holes
    *socks are rolled into pairs
    *they are high enough to cover cold ankles

    Peace Ambassadors will be at our upcoming Sock Hop on Thursday evening to take donations as well!  If you would prefer to donate to our coin collection, Mrs. Zwack will happily purchase socks and hats.

    Thank you for supporting our Warm Feet and Heads project!
