Our annual Spring Fundraiser is fast approaching. This year our Spring Fundraiser will run from Monday, April 16 to Friday, April 20.
All of the funds raised this year will go towards improving technology
for our classrooms. Each day that week, we will host a different
activity. For $2 on Monday, students can dress like a ‘Pirate.’ On Tuesday, enjoy a bag of popcorn for $2. Wednesday

Gluten-free pancakes are also available! 1 gluten-free pancake for $2.50
or 3 for $6.00. On Thursday, enjoy an ice cream sundae for $5.
Sundaes include two scoops of vanilla OR chocolate ice cream with
chocolate sauce. Add a banana or apple for $1. To wrap up the week we
will be hosting a dance party for $5. Order forms have been sent home and will be due no later than Friday, April 12. For students who collect a minimum of $35, they will get to enjoy a morning or afternoon at Kidsport. Please use the pledge sheet provided and be sure to turn in on a daily basis! Daily prizes
for the most amount of money brought in are; bonus casual days, getting
to sit at your teacher’s desk for a day, or shooting Mr. Foster with a
Nerf gun. School wide fundraising
targets will allow students the opportunity to give Mr. Rozario a
makeup lesson or water balloon their teachers. So, get out there SJA,
and raise some money!!!!!
IN CLASS:
Math:
Today students had their quiz for transformational geometry! Once they finished that they had a small art activity that used line of symmetry! I was great to see students put in a lot of effort! Some even finished, here are a few samples:
Language:
Students are to begin their Literacy Circle Roles this weekend! I look forward to hear what they have to say about our new novel.
As a reminder, I expect detailed, concise summaries; strong discussion questions that make others think; literal and figurative connections; enthusiastic reading; and tricky words that are defined and put back into context of their sentence.
UOI: Government
Students today participated in two fun activities that related to what the different responsibilities are for the levels of Canadian Government. First students sorted responsibilities (ie. fire department, garbage pick up, fisheries) into the three levels (federal, provincial, and municipal). After this activity we then played charades! Students picked the different responsibilities from a cup and had to act it out! Their team mates then had to guess what the action was and which level of government it came from.
For homework students are to complete and activity that relates to what we did in class. They are given situations and are to which level of government the person should bring their concern to. I am excited to see the answers Monday. This information we have been going over will be the basis for our Quiz on Tuesday.
NOTES:
A note from Arts Night- We are asking that each student bring in a picture from their childhood…it can be of any change (baby, toddler, young child, etc). Please send in all pictures no later than April 20th. Thank you in advance!
