Letter to the Parents – 16/5/2014

Dear Parents,
Happy Friday !
I was very proud of the students last week for how they worked on Terra Nova.
We have been straight back in to our studies this week with a new unit in Literacy and completing the unit on Fractions in Numeracy.
Next week in Social Studies we are working on a ‘Global Citizen’ project during class time.
Please remind your child to complete their book report for next Friday – 23rd May.
I have put a list of all the upcoming dates for May and June on the class blog.
We will have a busy few weeks !
I would LOVE to see the whole class sign up to do the ‘South Sound Stride’ on 31st May, registration is $10 for the students and includes a T Shirt, which is the same one they will wear for our concert and they can wear it anytime in June for school !
If anyone can help today with Fruity Friday that would be wonderful !
Have a great long weekend,
Janine Nyyssonen
