Thanks everyone for the wonderful school year! I have really felt fortunate to have had such a great group of students and such supportive and helpful parents. Thank you all for your very generous gifts, your thoughtfulness is appreciated.
Just a reminder that you can still access the blog all summer so therefore can link to Raz Kids, Spelling City, ABCYA and also the Xtra Math so that your child could get some educational screen time! All those accounts are active for the entire summer.
Hope you all have a fantastic fun-filled summer! See you in September, your child will be in their old classroom for at least the first couple of days.

Lice!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but please check your child's head regularly for the next few weeks as there are reported cases in ours and a couple other classes. No fun I know but the sooner you catch it the better.

June 10th
Division 7 has had a very fun week. On Tuesday we studied more about octopuses (or octopi - I googled it and actually both are okay to use) and then we made these cool octopuses out of dough! Thanks to Quinn's mom for finding the idea and Mason and Marco's mom for making the dough and helping us create them. Everyone loved making them and many loved eating them too!
Our field trip was awesome! Thanks to all the parents who were able to join us, we literally had a 2 child to 1 adult ratio! Highlights of the boat trip were driving the boat, seeing the seals, sea lions and learning about the different animals/birds that live in the area and the different resources (like lumber and sulfur) we saw that are being exported.
The students have brought home their spelling and Poetry books, these can be kept at home as we won't be using them again this year. Don't forget you could continue to use the Spelling City link on this blog to continue to practice spelling even over the summer. Over the next couple of weeks please check your child's backpack daily as we will be starting to send supplies (used and new) home. Thanks.
Parent volunteers needed! If you would be willing to take a tub or two of manipulatives home to wash that would be really appreciated, just let me know. Thanks so much!!

June 3
I can't believe it is June!
Next Monday and Tuesday will be the last treat days of the year. Bring your loonies Monday and Tuesday if you'd like chips, Freezies or Popsicles. Thanks to everyone who sent in money for change for change - Div. 7 did make a difference.
Our scientists are winding down, this week we had Tessa, Eli, Makayla, Gianna and Layton. We had traveling water, learned about primary and secondary colours plus how salt acts like a blanket to hold up an egg, how to make a rain cloud and quick sand.

This morning we had Quinn's dad Mark come and talk to us about the port of Vancouver. Ask me what all I learned about this port!
On Thursday we had a special guest Katleen Williamson. She read us a great Aboriginal story and we then painted these cool salmon.
Our field trip is on Thursday, June 9th. We will be sending a note home a couple days prior with all the information and what you'll need to bring. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with us! Thanks to everyone who has signed up, paid and volunteered to come and to/or drive. Please remember parents that are joining us for the boat tour there is $10 charge which you need to send in and we will cover it with one cheque from Fairview. Please let me know if you do plan to join us or just drive.
