Friday, September 6

A short but busy day today.  This morning we met our Grade 5 reading buddies.  We will be reading and doing other fun learning tasks with them throughout the year.  M. Marshall and I hope to meet about once a week so our students can work and learn together.
We had our first assembly today, where we met Varsity's new teachers and students.  We also have several new students and we're excited to have them.  Room 8 was a little anxious about our fire drill, but they did a fantastic job walking silently outside to our designated spot.  We discussed the importance of fire drills even though we find them very loud.  We had time to finish up some writing and play a math game, but didn't have time for art.  We'll do that on Monday.  Please see the below invitation for our Fall Welcome.  I hope to see you there.  Have a great weekend.
