Reminders

Dear parents,

We have a math test on our Measurement unit on Friday, May 30th. Things that will be tested include cm, m, km, perimeter, area and volume. 

We will be doing our art project involving the use of milk/juice cartons to make bird feeders, on Friday as well. If your child hasn't brought one in yet, please remember to send it along on Friday.

If you'd like some worms for your compost or castings for your garden at home, please send a plastic container with holes poked in the top to school with your child. We will be sharing our worms and castings on Friday. Any leftover worms and castings will be donated to our school garden club. 

We will have a Social Studies test next Monday, June 2nd. Included on the test will be the names of the provinces and territories of Canada and their capital cities. Students will need to know their location on a map of Canada. They will also be tested on symbols of Canafa and the major bodies of water that surround our country. 

We will have a party on June 6th to celebrate the conclusion of our study on Canada. The children should wear red and white, and bring a treat that is symbolic of Canada or symbolic of your country of origin, as Canada is a multi-cultural country. We celebrate Miss Gardener's last teaching day on this day as well. 

If anyone has a snow cone machine at home, please let us know. We'd like to make maple syrup. 

Best wishes,

Mrs. Gerri Karr and Miss Debbie Gardiner
