We have made a discovery. Not everyone is receiving emails from Andrea who is our room coordinator. Due to FOIP (privacy issues), the school does not supply the emails to the coordinators. The emails needed to be put on the volunteer paper that went to the Parent Council and then was given to Andrea. It was also discovered that sometimes the email addresses did not filter down to all the children in the family as you were asked to send it back with the eldest student in your family. Andrea has put together a letter to be sent home on Thursday with the children who we do not have email addresses for. Please feel free to contact her with your email using her address below if you would like to receive emails from her, otherwise you will need to check the blog daily and contact her when needed. Most of the information is placed in the blog first.

Daily Challenge:
We started reading a book called, ‘The North Star’. It will be the base of our work when we go to the Arts Commons. We got to the part where the cat is telling the boy that he needs to start his journey. Can you predict what that journey may be or where he is going? Remember your, ‘I see, I think, I wonder’.
