Hello Room 8 families,

Please read the important information listed below.

Daily Language Arts

Today we started Daily Language Arts rotations in our classroom. What does this look like? Check out the photo below and ask your child!

I will ask you to please send a pair of headphones to school for your child to keep in their cubby. They will be using headphones to plug into the iPads for our 'Listening to Reading' station. 

Terry Fox Run

Tomorrow we will be having our Annual Terry Fox Run. In our classroom we've discussed the life of Terry Fox and the contributions he has made to cancer research as well as coming together in the afternoon for a virtual wrap up assembly.  Students are encouraged to wear blue/white/ or their school t-shirt on this day. 

Students can dedicate their run to someone who they know has been affected by cancer. Please speak to your child prior to our run and if they choose to dedicate their run to someone, they can share this in their class sharing circle prior to or after their run. 

Should you wish to make a donation online, please use the following link to donate through the Terry Fox website:

Let’s keep Terry’s dream to find a cure for cancer alive! 

Conferences

What an amazing school year start-up we have been having at LBS! Typically, at this time of year, we host Parent Teacher Conferences in an Open House format. With restrictions due to Covid-19, our format has been adjusted. This year, each class has created a video to introduce families to our school, answer commonly asked questions and show details of how our class works. These videos will be released on Thursday, September 23, 2021 at 4:00 pm. If you have questions after viewing the video, please reach out. We are certainly missing seeing families in our school building and look forward to future opportunities where this may be possible. There will be no school on Friday, September 24th.
