Vancouver Public Library Field Trip

Division 2 is focusing their attention on non-fiction reading and writing skills in term one.  We are focusing on 5-Paragraph essays, note taking, and research skills.  Next Thursday, October 24th, Division 2 is heading to the Vancouver Public Library for a day of research skill development.  The field trip form came home today and needs to be returned by Monday.  We are looking forward to it!

Goal Setting Conferences

Just a reminder about the 2pm dismissal tomorrow and Thursday for Goal Setting Conferences.  Your son or daughter should have brought home your conference time today.  If you did not get it, I have posted the schedule on the wall outside our classroom.  The office will also have a copy, so feel free to give them a call.

I look forward to discussing your child's first term goals with you.

Photo Day

Just a reminder that photo day is on Monday, Oct 7th. Peer Helpers will also be attending a training day in the library.  It should be a great week!  Enjoy the sunshine.
