Our week ahead Jan.20-24

Hello Families:
Please make sure that your child has indoor shoes that fit and extra clothes and mitts at school.  We love the snow and often our mitts get soaking wet at first recess.  Extra socks too please.
Please mark off your calendar for Monday, January 27.
Our Community Connection Committee has arranged for a Lion Dance performance at 11:45 am at our school in the Gym.  Students are invited to wear traditional clothing for the day and families are welcome to attend.
Dance-A-Thon, February 14th, 2020 - We are very excited for our second Rick Hansen PS Dance-A-Thon brought to the school by the Rick Hansen Parent Advisory Council. This year’s Dance-A-Thon will take place on February 14, 2020. Our first Dance-A-Thon was a great success and we are looking forward to this year’s event. It will be one of two main fundraisers for our school this year. Pledge forms will be sent home to families in January.
Here are some other reminders for our upcoming week:
1) Monday is Day 5 of our cycle, in the event of no school on Monday, Tuesday will be a Day 1.  Please return all Library books and we will exchange our books on Tuesday

4) We just finished our Math Unit on 2D shapes, if playing outside this weekend have them draw their known 2D shapes and discuss their attributes, sides and corners.  Find real life 2D shapes at home too!
Have a wonderful snowy day weekend with your children.  If out and about, travel safely!
