Updates and Reminders

Monday is "blue shirt day" in recognition of Unicef's International Children's Day. 

Autobiography questions need to come back for Monday so that students can move on to the next stage of their writing.

To help ensure that students are remembering to change over their home reading books on a regular basis, I will be making Thursday home reading day.  This is also our Learning Commons day, so we will be able to get all book exchanges done on the same day.  Students will need to have their home reading folder and book at school every Thursday. 

Have a fantastic weekend!
