First,next,then,after that,finally. We will be learning to write simple procedures.  Remember our class will be going skating on Wednesday.

We will be having 4th Annual Cocoa House on December 18th, beginning at 6:15 pm.  You and your child(ren) or family member(s) are invited to take part in an old fashioned Christmas sing along.  If you have a talent and want to share come out and sing!    If you are shy and want to put two families together, you are more than welcome to do that.  We will have our sound system and piano available for anyone who needs it. We will also be having a Dessert Silent Auction that will take place in the cafeteria before the carols and/or performances begin.  Bidding will begin at 5:30 and end at 6:30.  There will also be a photo booth set up for family/friends photos.  Each photo will be $5.00 each. All money raised from the dessert auction will be given to selected Saint Andrew’s families.  Please come and enjoy some Christmas cheer.  Cookies and hot chocolate will be served. **Students must be accompanied by a family member**

 Just a friendly reminder that parents and guardians are only permitted to take photos of their own child/children during school events and photos that might include other students cannot be posted online.  Photos that are used on the school website or in the local media have been approved by the administration

The grade one classes wil go skating on Wednesday,November 27.(The bus will leave the school at about 8:35. All students require a skating helmet to be allowed on the ice.  If your child would like to borrow a pair of skates from the school, please send a note to their homeroom teacher with their shoe size, one week before they go skating and we will try to provide a pair for the season.   Our Home and School has given the school helmets to loan for skating and these are signed out for the day, however the sizes and numbers are very limited.)

This week we will be adding five more sight words to our word wall. They are: but,came,get,just,out. The word families for this week are "og" and "ug". Students please remember that you will be writing everyday.  Have a chat with someone at home about what memory you would like to write about.  We will be having our Remembrance Day program at 9:15 in the gym on Friday, November 8 for those who wish to attend.  

A reminder that picture retakes will take place this Thursday, October 24.  This week we will be exploring the following  five sight words:because,then,one,your,man.  We will also be working on blends sh,ch,th,etc.  Remember to come to school each day with a "TOPIC IN YOUR POCKET".Students may start a new writing piece or add to a piece they have all ready started.  We are in for another great week of learning!
