With PE being outside, it is important that students bring waterbottles and hats to help protect them from the sun. We do not have time to put sunscreen on before heading out for PE so please try to do that in the mornings before getting to school.

Our new Science Topic is, Small Crawling and Flying Animals. We are excited to learn about lots of creepy crawlers. We are working at making sure each of our sentences has a capital, noun, verb and period or other end mark. You can work on this at home too. We are also working on stretching our sentences. Ask your child the difference between a stretched and a non-stretched sentence.

Note for this Thursday from Ms. Cokar
On Thursday, May 31 Calgary Reads is hosting a Reading Rally for all our Grade 1/2 students. Calgary Reads will have over 20 volunteer readers and we are looking for a few more. If you have your volunteer clearance and are available the afternoon of May 31, please email Ms. Cokar at nmcokar@cbe.ab.ca as soon as possible. Volunteers will read with two students for about 20 minutes, be entertained by the teachers performing a Reader's Theatre, listen to a guest reader sharing a story, and then read with two more students. Approximate times are 12:30 to 2:00.

If you want to become an official Calgary Reads wee reads volunteer and have your volunteer clearance, please contact Ms. Cokar for more information.
