    A big thank you to parents who brought in treats for Valentine's day...it was an exciting and wonderful day!  We had more than enough treats.
This is a short week with an inservice day on Friday (No School).  This week will include new spelling words (Unit 16) and we will continue to work on two items in language arts one is fixing "Run-on" sentences and the second is making  complete sentences that make sense.  In math, we will be having two quizzes this week one on the 3 times table...such as 3x1= 3 up to 3x12= 36 (Wednesday) and the other is regrouping (Thursday) quiz.  Although we have been practising these  concepts please practice at home so your child will be ready for the quiz.   
In Social Studies we are making pit houses....and taking notes and converting them into a full sentence that will produce a report about the Pit House and Tepees.  In Science, we have started "Properties of Matter" and in Health and Career we should be finishing our "Kindness" Posters...so a very busy short week!            

Reminder Change of Clothes
We have recently begun the "wet field" season at Arthur Stevenson elementary.  Students are returning from recess/lunch completely soaked.  Please send a complete change of clothes (including socks) to school in a plastic bag with your child’s name on it.   Clothes can stay in the lockers.

Reminder Library Day is Monday!

 Let's take a look at this week:
Monday, Feb.15  - New spelling unit & Library Day (Return library books)
Tuesday, Feb.16 - Gym Day
Wednesday, Feb. 17 - Recognition Assembly (8:45) & Science
Thursday, Feb.18 -Fine Arts with Ms. Quast
Friday, Feb. 19- PRO-D  (NO SCHOOL)


As always you can contact me at the school or email me.
Let's have a great week!

     Well we are going into the second week of February...and I hope everyone enjoyed your time with your family on Family Day!  This week will be a short week so we will not have new spelling unit...instead we will be concentrating on paragraph development.  Also, the "cold bug" has hit our school, so I will be reminding students to wash hands even more so...hopefully this will keep our class healthy.  
    In Math, we are going will continue with times tables and skip counting along with review on regrouping and burrowing.  In Science, we will move onto "matter," and in Social Studies we will continue with Shuswap Peoples.  

Valentine’s Day
We will be having a low key Valentine’s Day in class this year. Students are encouraged to give Valentine’s to each other, but please ensure that your child gives a Valentine to EVERY STUDENT IN THE CLASS. We have 22 students in our class. I will sent out a class list on Tuesday.   
  
Let's take a look at this week:
Monday, Feb.8 -Family Day (No School) 
Tuesday, Feb.9-P.E. & No new spelling unit
Wednesday, Feb. 10 - Social Studies
Thursday, Feb. 11- Fine Arts with Ms. Quast & P.E.
Friday, Feb. 12 -Science  

Let's have a great week!
