• After this prayer service, the grade 2s will remain in the gym for a grade 2 Christmas dance performance for parents of our students.
• 2:15 - The students will go outside for recess and parents are invited to the grade 2 classrooms after the student's dance for classroom Christmas activities that will occur after recess.

Please RSVP in the agenda if you are able to attend.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!!!

At St.Anne we will be having a pyjama day on Monday, November 30, 2015.  On Monday, we would like students to wear their favourite pyjamas and please bring in a donation or a brand new pair of children's sized pajamas to support the Pyjama Patrol Project.  Students can wear pajamas, slippers, and bring in a stuffed animal if they wish.  We hope everyone can participate and enjoy wearing their PJ's to school!

Attention all photographers!!!
The grade 2 team is looking to see who in our grade two community has photography skills and experience.  We are starting a project in the weeks to come and are looking for someone who would be interested in volunteering their time and talents with our grade 2 students to teach them the elements of a good photo.  Please write a note in your child’s agenda should you be interested in helping us.

This week our school will be having a Remembrance Day service in the gym at 10:30am.  The school will be accepting donations tomorrow and Wednesday for poppies in preparation for this service. 

Students will be bringing home their "Assessment duotangs" tomorrow. Please take some time to review the samples of your child's work and sign the front page prior to returning it to school. 

Thank you to everyone who has returned the bottom of their child's progress report (second page) as well as the envelope.  I look forward to meeting with everyone this coming Wednesday to discuss how your child is doing in grade 2.  If you have not already done so, please go online and schedule a time to meet with me (and Mme Sarah if interested). 

Progress reports went home today.  Please take the time to discuss it with your child and sign the bottom of the final page (in the envelope please).  I look forward to meeting with everyone during parent teacher interview night on November 11.  The blue sheet in the progress report envelope outlines how you can choose your desired interview time.

In math, we continue to explore 2D shapes.

In language, we have been exploring descriptive writing using our 5 senses.  With Remembrance Day next week our topic of choice has been "Peace."  Ask your child about the story "What does peace feel like."  This book was our inspiration for our own writing samples.

A few dates to note:
1.  Photo retake day is Wednesday, November 18th.
2.  Next Wednesday is our Remembrance day service.  Could students who are in Sparks, Brownies, Guides, Cubs, Beavers or Scouts please wear their uniforms to school.  The liturgy begins at 10:30am.
