I hope everyone enjoyed such a sunny, beautiful weekend!  It is great to have some spring weather.
It is Earth week at school this week so please have your child participate by wearing the designated colour for each day's theme. Ask your child to discuss with you the message for each theme as well. Tomorrow (Monday) is blue day to represent water.  Please encourage your child to only bring reusable water containers to school each day.  Please check the weekly memo for each day's theme and colour this week.
We have our exciting trip downtown this Thursday so check with your child's homeroom teacher if you have any questions.
It is important that your child does his or her homework each week so you can be up to date on concepts being taught and your child will have the chance to practice these concepts at home. Much of the homework this week is relating to our NPDL project.  If you have not yet returned the consent sheet for this please do so this week.
Please see the math and language updates below:
Math: We will continue with our exploration of fractions and work at making fraction strips to help in the understanding of equivalent fractions.
Language:  We are finished with our pourquoi stories and will spend time focusing on goal setting Your child will be interviewing a family member or family friend to determine success in this area.
