Highlights
Today we talked about the grapheme “u”
and “v”. We completed our morning math problem and had to figure out if Marie
had 5 candies and Joe had 4 candies, how many would we have altogether. We talked about Terry Fox and why we have the
Terry fox run.

Mui’s class : We wrote about Terry
Fox and what he accomplished and why. In Social Studies, we interviewed Kaleb today. We also had music class today where we
played the xylophones.

classifying. We were able to sort classroom manipulatives by 1 attribute

Walk to School!
Last spring we invited all families attending
PHS to join with their friends and neighbours to walk to school every Wednesday
and Friday morning. Let's continue to make this simple change that results in
big benefits! We encourage you to explore the residential areas around the
school for parking spaces that are more convenient while being mindful about
parking in front of private driveways. Parking just two or three blocks away
from the school will reduce frustration and increase everyone’s safety! You may enter child in a draw if they walk to
school on these days…see the school website for details.
To support children in becoming knowledgeable
readers, the most important thing parents can do is to read aloud to their
children and talk about what has been read. This nightly process supports
children in developing oral language skills (the ability to talk in a fluid and
understandable manner), comprehension (understanding what has been read), and
sparks enthusiasm toward the act of reading. We created this downloadable
document to support parents in identifying the expectations for readers during
their years at PHS:
We are one week away from our schools Terry Fox Run! Lets ramp up our
