Apologies the blog has not come out recently. It has snuck away on us.

Thank you to everyone who came to our Spring Concert last night. It was awesome to see so much support. Your children played and sang beautifully and I am so proud of them.

The Kinder and Grade 4-6 concert is this evening. Enjoy if you are going.

Friday, tomorrow, is our Pillars of Care Assembly. You should have received the invites last night if your child is receiving an award. Hope to see you at 8:15 am for that.

I cannot believe May is almost over! This year has flown right by. Keep up the reading each day. It will help your child to maintain their reading level over the summer and be ready for the next school year.

Thank you also to everyone who was able to come and meet with me last week. It was lovely to see you all. If you were unable to come and would still like to meet, please let me know and we will set something up.

I hope you are all enjoying this beautiful weather we are having! Cheers!

Scholastic Orders are due back tomorrow! Thanks for those who have already sent in their orders.

We have a Volunteer Tea coming up on the morning of June 8th. We would love to see all our lovely volunteers come so we can show our appreciation for you. An invitation will be coming home next week.

We are having PE outdoors if the weather is good, so please send your child with a hat and put some sunscreen on them in the morning or send it with them if they know how to do it themselves. Waterbottles can be taken outside also, but please talk with your child about making sure they go to the washroom during recess or lunch so they don't miss out on their PE time. Teachers cannot be taking students in to constantly go to the bathroom or get a drink of water. We need to help with supervision and running the activities.

We will soon be learning about Small Crawling and Flying Animals in Science! It is a fun unit to be able to take a closer look at all the creepy crawlers around us. We will be finishing up our Boats and Buoyancy unit early next week.

Fun Lunch

Tomorrow is our Pizza Fun Lunch! Please remember to send a snack for recess so your child can keep up their brain energy...their regular energy is high enough :)

Scholastic Book orders for May are due this Wednesday! Before we know it our last orders will be going out...aaaah!

Today was our crazy wazy day! Day 3!!! We just get going on an activity and then have to go to PE or Music, but then we get to come back to it. We worked on our Bluenose Concept map and made some great connections and asked some wonderful questions. I am looking forward to sharing these with you in the coming weeks.

Ms. Yu will be visiting us Tuesday afternoon!!! YEA! She is hired on as a sub for the CBE and is just waiting for all her paperwork to go through, hopefully that will be in the next couple weeks. Mrs. Nelson will have to take a day or two off so Ms. Yu can be back with the kiddos.

This Thursday and Friday, Mrs. Nelson will be away and Mr. Depew will be subbing (he is an old friend of Mrs. Nelson's.

School Carnival

See the picture for details about a fun carnival here at Beddington!


PJ Day Tomorrow AND Star Wars Day

If you've got Star Warts Pajamas then you have got it made! Wear PJ's or Star Wars attire tomorrow! PJ's were earned because we met our goal for Pillars of Care Month and Star Wars Day because May the 4th Be With You!

You are allowed to bring a stuffy and some popcorn for a special movie premiere of Charlotte's Web!!!

Today we had Constable Kovacs come to our class and teach us about how to deal with the tools we have to stay healthy and safe. We can make good choices using our BRAIN. We can ask for help using our MOUTH. We can listen to someone talk with our EARS. We can get active or move away from a problem using our LEGS. And most importantly we can use our HEART to show that we care and that we care for others.

We also discussed the reason for wearing Hats for Mental Health. Even though you cannot see that someone is sick, it is important to treat people with a Mental Illness the same way you would treat a friend with a broken arm. Help your friends out and listen when they need to talk.

Spelling Quiz tomorrow morning!
Group A - bell, fell, tell, shell, like, ball, fall, tall, hill, mill
Group B - did, but, most, kind, find, fave, not, give, going, doing

Hats on for Mental Health

Hats on for Mental Health Thursday! It was supposed to be today, but it was our Picture Day so it's tomorrow for us! Please wear a hat tomorrow and we will discuss different Mental Health topics.

We worked really hard on our Spelling this morning. I was so proud of the whole class!

We are almost finished reading Charlotte's Web. Ask your child what just happened. The kids have decided they like when I read because I use really good EXPRESSION!!!! Ask them to show you what they mean.

Tomorrow we have Constable Kovacs coming to our classroom to discuss some safety information. We will tell you all about it tomorrow.

Have a beautiful sunny day :)

Picture Day

Picture Day tomorrow!!! Each student who has their picture taken will earn our school $2. There is no need to make any purchases! Sounds like a good deal to me. :)

New Spelling Words came home today. They may look familiar as I took old words that some students in each group needed to work on. We are doing a massive review!

Dance Club started today! I think the kids had a great time!

Writing Club runs tomorrow! I love that some students have joined and are working on their creative writing.

This afternoon we worked on typing. Students had to write 5 sentences. Most students printed their typing and brought it home. Afterwards a few students enjoyed Mathletics and then we had Music.

Thanks for getting your kids here on time today! It was a full house and no one was late!!! Way to go Room 4 Family's!
