Bible Verse: We finish with vs. 4 of Psalm 23 and add it to vs.1-3 that your child has already learned: “The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me, your rod and your staff they comfort me.” I will practise everyday in class, your home practise would be most helpful.
Home Reading: I was so pleased to hear 4 students read to me their home reading book. Hopefully this coming week more students will be ready (after 3 home readings) to read to me. Learning Assistance students should be practising everyday from their reading ziploc baggie! Thank you so much for all your home support!
Field Trip: Due to the smoke situation, our field trip took a different look. We rode the bus to Walmart and picked a pumpkin, followed by some hot chocolate and a Timbit at Tim Hortons. We finished up with a movie and popcorn. The children enjoyed the bus ride and were happy to take home a pumpkin. Thank you to the parents who came along and helped make the outing possible. See pictures below.
Buddy Time: This past Tuesday we spent some time with our Gr. 5 buddies and made a pumpkin craft together. Here is the bulletin board display of our “pumpkin patch”. See pictures below.
Bowling Field Trip for November: The dates will be Nov. 4 and Nov. 18. Permission slips will be sent home on Monday. (afternoon bowling from 1:30-2:30 pm)
