A student showed it to me. "Look Mrs. Tizzard a maple leaf!

Living and non living

We were exploring living and non living items around the school .

We had great discussions about how things were living and now are non living .

For example the tree is alive but the fallen bark from the tree in not. Amazing thinking  and wondering....

Extended Book order

Hi Families I extended the book orders because I was late updating my account . Parents can order online now so now it is super easy. Just go to scholastic Canada select my name and choose the books and check out.  Remember to write your child's name on the form so I know who will get the correct order.
Happy reading

Scholastic Book Orders

I sent home a note and book orders from Scholastic . On back of the orders is the space to check off the books you would like . Please remember to make sure to look in the row with ONT that is us and prices may have different amounts and some items have taxes. I will receive points from Scholastic that allow me to purchase games and books for the classroom when I receive orders from families to get books.The more orders the more points I receive.

Happy Reading!!!

Book Orders are Due Sept 19 Thursday.

Have a wonderful weekend.
