Pizza day was a great success with the money raised going to pay for the GoGo Ball wood.  Thanks to Sarah E. for picking up the pizzas.

Pender Island GR.4s and 5s are coming for a visit tomorrow.  We walk down to the ferry to meet them for 9:30 and then we have a fun-filled day of activities for them to do with our class until they leave for Long Harbour at 2:30.  We are all excited about having our friends from Pender for the day.

On Wednesday morning at 11:00 our class is discussing the design for the sets of Peter Pan.  I would love to have a couple of artistic parents to be there to help with the ideas and to guide suggestions for painting the sets.  Then next Monday after school we are having a set painting session.  Students who are able will stay after school and paint the sets and be ready to be picked up by 4:30.  Parents are welcome to help!

Subjects

Math:   We are starting geometry this week and looking at points and types of lines.  
 "Math is the science of patterns."
Reading:   We continue practicing Peter Pan this week without scripts.  A couple of students tried their parts without scripts last week.  
Writing:  The fictional story will be finished and printed this week.
Science:  Our next experiment will be how to use less energy to make an object move.  
Art:  We focus on the design of the sets for Peter Pan.
PE:  Jiving is fun and we're also practicing events for Track and Field.    
French:  Students continue learning simple French words and greetings. They will be learning days of the week, months, and the weather.
