Our week for February 24-28, 2025

We will wear PINK to stand up to bullying on Wednesday February 26!

Pink Shirt Day began in 2007 when a student in Nova Scotia was bullied for wearing a pink shirt to school. It has since been recognized annually worldwide as a day to stand against bullying.

Here are some reminders for our upcoming week.

1) Monday is Day 3 of our cycle.

2) Tuesday is Library (Day 4)

3) Our MWW words for Lesson # 47 are:  th (unvoiced) and a Heart Word

5) On Thursday we went home with our Materials Hunt Letter.  We will be building playgrounds out of Materials from home after March Break. Please bring recyclable/materials found at home by March 17, 2025. Below is the actual letter for your reference.

Thank you to all who helped volunteer at the ROC.  I hope you had fun making memories with your children!

Attention:  Parents

Going on a Material Hunt

As part of our Materials, Objects and Everyday Structures unit, we are going to do a STEM project at school.  We are in need of materials to be brought to school by Monday ,March 17, 2025. We are going to be Engineers and we are going to build a playground structure out of everyday objects/materials from home.

Some materials we are going to using could be:

-paper towel/toilet paper rolls

-canned tins (no sharp edges)

-popsicle sticks/pipe cleaners/straws/toothpicks

-milk/juice/tetra cartons (cleaned)

-tinfoil/wrapper containers/plastic containers

-loose parts

-paper/fabric/yarn/foam/felt

-lego pieces

-cardboard

-paper/plastic cups

-glue/tape/markers

-other (whatever they really want to use to be engineers) 🙂

I have enclosed a rubric of how we will be marked.  This is part of our final mark and we are learning to present orally in front of the class too.

We will use our Science words like:

-span a gap, contain an object, support a load, rigid, flexible,stable

I will provide the base of their playground (bristol board/box lid).   If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or ask.

Thank you for your support. Mrs. Petramala
