Happy Lunar New Year!

We are ready for a great year of the rooster in Division 2!  With all our discussions on poverty, we are very aware of how fortunate we are.  

Gina from the Vancouver Public Library is coming tomorrow to teach us how to better use the public library as a resource.  We will use these new resources tomorrow as we continue our discussions on Residential Schools.  Miss Kelly and I encourage you ask your child about Reconciliation and Residential Schools as its a tricky topic and they may have sensitive questions.  We will continue to inquiry, share, and discuss in the classroom as well.  

Just a reminder about Play Day on Thursday!  We encourage kids to bring things to play with: games, dolls, cards, toys, bikes, skateboards, etc.  It's going to be great.  

Finally, our Lit Circle books are finishing up.  Students are working on a scrapbook page to represent the important themes, events, and characters in their novels.  On Tuesday the 7th, students will be handing in their 2 best Reading Power and Lit Circle Role sheets.  We encourage them to take some time over the next week to make sure they are handing in their best work!

Mrs. Soper & Miss Kelly
