What a fabulous first week! We have spent lots of time talking about what kind of place we want our class to be (like a family!) and getting to know each other. We have also talked a lot about what it means to have a growth mindset and keep on trying when things are hard.
- Students need 2 pairs of shoes to leave at school. One is their black indoor shoes, and the other is a pair of running shoes for gym. Please make sure they have these shoes here by the end of next week.
- Students are not allowed to use the water fountains this year, so they each need to bring a water bottle to school. We will send these home with them on Fridays for washing.
- I sent home the Scholastic book forms today. This is a completely optional program, but if you do decide to order books, it allows us to order things for our classroom as well. Our class code so you can order online is RC553335.
- We have 2 field trips coming up this month! If you already have your security clearance to volunteer, please consider joining us as we will need some help!
- On September 22 we will be going to Granery Road. This will connect with our "Small Crawling and Flying Animals" unit in Science. We will need 4 - 5 volunteers to join us for the whole day.
- On September 28 we are having an in-class field trip where we will be learning about the Acadians for our Social Studies unit. We will have special guests who will lead us in a variety of activities. For this field trip we need 3 volunteers for the afternoon.

Have a great long weekend!
