Fundraising Market


As part of our summative assessment the grade one classes have decided to open a market to complement our organization unit. The market will include fruits, vegetables, drinks and other healthy snacks. It will be held in rooms 25, 28 and 29. The market will take place all day Thursday, January. 24th and Friday, January. 25th. All profits made will be donated to the Sick Kid’s Hospital. We appreciate your support!

March Break Camp at SJA













Jump Rope for Heart 



It is that time again! We will be participating in Jump Rope for Heart on Thursday, February 14th. Donation packages have been sent home. You can make a pledge using cash or you can donate on the website - jumpropeforheart.ca. House points will be rewarded to each student who brings in donations. If we meet our school goal of $2500, students will be rewarded with a fun activity. Let’s see what we can do SJA!

French
  • We didn't have French today because Mlle Jessica had to cover another class. 
Math
  • We continued our unit on data management and probability. Children had to pull a tile from a container,  colour a square in the path, and replace the tile and repeat until one row was filled. There were 10 red tiles and 5 blue tiles. We had to think what colour would win and why? We realized that because there were more red tiles, they were more likely to win. 







Gym

Inquiry into Language
  • We got our new spelling words for the week!
  • Students copied down their words and then had time to work on their spelling exercises book. 

Unit of Inquiry
  • Today we read a book together and orally did a retell of the book as practice. Then the students had time to work on their own book retell presentation. Please continue to work on this with your child. Reminder that it needs to be between 3 and 5 minutes.

Have a great evening!
