EQAO has begun. Students will continue to write next week.
Please ensure your child arrives on time, as testing gets underway right at 9:00am.
Reminders:
Tuesday: Please return all library books. All books are due back to the library for the end of the year.
Friday: We will be doing a school-wide kindness activity. In celebration of our school kindness initiative, we will be prepping for our final kindness activities. All students will be given a stone to paint. Each stone will be added to the courtyard to create a painted stone walkway. Similar to the pictures below.

I just want to say how proud I am of my grade 3s. I know EQAO testing isn't easy and can be stressful, but they are preserving!! Keep it up! Just a few more days!!
Exciting things this week:
Babies are hatching everywhere!!!
Our duck family returned again this year. Momma duck laid her eggs and this week they hatched. 12 little ducklings!!
What we learned this week:
Language: With EQAO taking away 2 hours of our morning, we didn't get to do much work for our language block.
Cereal boxes for media were completed.
Math: We started to look at division and continued with some money and probability work.
Science: Science reports that we have been working on for the last 5 weeks were due today (Friday). Those who were not done their projects were given many opportunities to complete their assignment this week, including 3 hours today. The small number who did not complete their entire projects will be asked to complete them during at least 1 recess a day until they are completed. We need to move on to other projects and a new science unit.
*** Students will work on their dioramas for part of next week. Grade 2s will do a science diorama based on their researched animal. Grade 3s will do a diorama about one of Ontario's geographic landscapes. Students will be asked to present information about their diorama.
Drama: We continued to practice our play "The Great Kapok Tree". Please help your child memorize their lines. Students will be presenting these plays to the primary division later in June.
