Day 1! Last day before Christmas Break

Announcements
Christmas Break is here !!!
We tidied up our cubby area today. When students return to school, please ensure they bring their black shoes and gym shoes back to school. Also, we emptied all of our agenda bags. Please ensure all papers that have been sent home remain at home as they are from the first term.

I have sent home two language packages and a math package for students to practice their writing, reading and math skills over the break, especially their multiplication and division skills. This will help them in all of these subject areas when they return in January. 

Thank you all for the thoughtful presents and kind words! I wish you all a Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing everyone in the New Year! We return to school on Wednesday, January 8th, 2020!


Christmas Activities
This morning we had our Communication awards ceremony, which Mya from our class won! Well done Mya! After this, we had our Christmas House game where a couple students from each house competed in putting a nose on Rudolph (a teacher). It was close between all houses, however πŸ’šZetaπŸ’š won this one!πŸ‘πŸ‘

After music, Ms. Chiappetta's class joined our class to vote for the top three "Ugly Christmas Sweaters" that the Grade 3s created. Congratulations to Julia, Sophie and Mya who won a prize for placing in the top 3! Once our classes separated, our class handed out the gifts they brought for their peers. After lunch, we joined Ms. Chiappetta's class to watch "Santa Buddies". At the end of the day the students joined Ms. V for Gym before the Christmas Break.
