We've earned a movie party!!!! So on Monday we will watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005).
We will be able to wear PJ's but remember we will have outdoor PE and NO STUFFY'S this time. If your child wants to bring some microwave popcorn I am willing to pop a bag, OR you can pop it at home and send it in. (Hopefully everyone doesn't want a bag popped ha ha)

Today zoomed right by!
We worked on a journal entry about our weekend and read a short story that we had to answer some questions about.
This afternoon we went to go work on our Willy Wonka letters and found out we lost them :( we will need to restart. But now that everyone knows what to do it should go quickly and smoothly.
Then we were surprised with Ms. Yu in for Mr. Wiens in Music class! That was so fun!
Reminder to send back all Home Reading books or $5 for lost books. I will send home a note later this week for students who have not handed theirs in.
Have a great evening!

RE: Celebrate Ramadan & Worms
Tomorrow, Tuesday, we will "fast" for our recess snack and learn a little more about Ramadan and Eif El Fitr. Our recess fast will be totally voluntary and if a student complains of hunger, I will make sure they eat straight away. We will not be fasting water.
Talk with your child about whether they want to do this fast with the class or not. Although we all have different religious beliefs, I believe it is important to learn about all religions and cultures. Just like we talk about and celebrate other holidays like; Christmas, Easter , Birthdays, May the 4th, etc. I find this helps us with accepting diverse people we are in contact with.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Today we learned a little bit about worms! Ask your child one thing they learned.

Sports Day
Thursday June 7th is sports day. It will be regular classes in the morning and then activities all afternoon. The forecast is looking good with a high of 26 predicted. If you wish for your child to wear sun screen please send them to school with it as we are not allowed to provide it to students. I recommend wearing a hat, sunglasses, good running shoes and to bring a water bottle. We will have 3 stations that involve water with a chance of getting slightly wet. All stations are optional so if you wish your child not to participate in these events, please let them know to skip those. The day will end with freezies provided by parent council in the gym about 10 minutes before dismissal. If the weather changes and it raining or unsafe to go ahead with sports day we will re-schedule to a later date.
Any questions or concerns can be directed to Mr. Sadowsky.
Thank you

Lost and Found
Tomorrow, Friday, is the last day to take a look through the lost and found. There are over 60 hoodies, a number of waterbottles and lunch kits and tons of clothes. Please chat with your child if you think they are missing something.
On Friday all the leftover Lost & Found will be bagged up and donated.
Mrs. Nelson woke up sick this morning, so we had a pretty quiet day. Ms. Yu will be with the students tomorrow. How exciting!
We have a big Reading Rally tomorrow afternoon which sounds like it will be a lot of fun, I'm sad to miss it.
Tomorrow is also the last day of school this week. No school Friday! So please study your spelling words as that will take place in the morning.
Stay Healthy :)

Spelling Words were chosen by each group. They went through their books and chose words for this week.
Group A - was, you, she, cone, rome, likes, make, dish, want, favourite
Group B - was, going, say, paint, will, puppy, play, get, turn, belong
Group C - joked, received, smile, money, between, please, zipper, light, then, afraid, spelling, middle, which, may, when
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.
