Letter to the Parents – 2/12/2016

Dear Grade 5 Parents,

Happy Friday and the start of Advent Season…. it’s that most wonderful time of the year 🙂
In literacy this week we have continued on with a fiction and poetry study from Storytown. The class examined Haikus and Limericks. They had fun writing their own too ! They also worked on action, main and helping verbs.
In Social Studies this week we completed a short unit of study on the Population of the Cayman Islands – and now move onto the Natural Environment.
Monday 5th December at 6.30pm is our school concert. Please have your child dropped to the music suite by 6.15pm – wearing their costume or a green top and jeans. Grade 5 have been asked to bring in a bag of crisps ( chips : ) for the dessert fellowship after the concert. Thank you.
Friday 9th December is our class trip to the Art Gallery. I need one more driver please.
Our class Christmas party will be on the last day of school – each child could please bring a book as a gift – wrapped. They will draw a name today of the person they are to buy a book for.
We are also going to collect items to put into a box for a family in need  please send in one item – maybe a canned good, small gift, household item, that would come in useful.
Thanks so much for your help,
Have a wonderful weekend,
Blessings.
