Remembrance Day - 2011 11 11
Homework: get Science Test signed
Blogger of the Day: Julia
Today we had an assembly about Rememberance day. 3A (us) preformed "In Flanders Fields." We had fun singing and acting.Mrs. Alison and Miss Maswaran painted the ghost soldiers' faces white. Yay weekend!!
A note from Mrs. Allison:
3A students did a wonderful job dramatizing and singing "In Flanders Fields" at today's Remembrance Day assembly. I am very proud of how they lead the school in Remembrance on this very special day. Below are some pictures from the assembly. We were honoured to have two distinguished military personnel join us to show the kids the importance of Remembrance Day. Madame Laurendeau's grandfather - Corporal Simard and Petty Officer Dobson came to share their experiences with our school. We were all very moved. These two officers are living reminders of why we must appreciate the country that we live in and remember those who fought for us. Lest we forget...
Have a wonderful weekend.

Happy weekend everyone!
What a fantastic Friday! Today was Random Acts of Kindness day and we started the day with many generous donations of cereal. Then, Levi was "caught" doing a good deed when he found and returned Reese's watch. After, Reese paid it forward by helping Dimitri get his supplies to prepare for the Math test. Finally, Dimitri and his family paid it forward by sending a delicious platter of Spanikopita for the class to sample. What a wonderful treat! Thank you to the Christopoulos family!
Questions:
1. What was the main idea of this paragraph?
2. Would you say my lead was boring or interesting? Why?
If you have time this weekend, go on the this website and practise singing "In Flander's Fields" for Friday's assembly.

November Newslettter
Dear Parents and Guardians:
We have had another busy month and I would like to thank 3A families for your participation in so many of our school initiatives and events. Your participation and generosity mean so much.
1. Reading and Walking the Trail - Congratulations to Gavin and Levi who won prizes at the fundraiser draw today. This fundraiser brought in over $8000 to our school and will help to pay for a few "extras" in the classrooms at Talbot Trail.
2. Operation Christmas Child - Our class has collected over 7 shoeboxes of donations to send away to kids abroad. We will also be writing letters to the kids and including them in the shoeboxes.
3. Cereal Challenge - At the moment, the school is collecting cereal to donate to another local school in the area. Please do not feel obligated to participate. It is important that the children learn to give, but it is also important that our Talbot Trail families do not feel over-extended. To do my share, I will be matching the number of cereal boxes that students bring in. We also have a can drive coming up closer to Christmas and you may decide as a family that you wish to participate in that instead. Whatever your choice, we appreciate all your donations and efforts.
Important dates:
Friday, November 4th - Random Act of Kindness Day
Tuesday, November 8th - Cat's Paw Pottery
Friday, November 11 - Remembrance Day Assembly at 10:45 a.m.
Monday, November 14 - Progress Reports go home
Thursday, November 17 - Parent/teacher interviews
Friday, November 18 - P.D. Day (No School)
Gym days: November 10, 11, 17, 25, 28
Library days: November 14, 29

Finally, thank you for the opportunity to teach your children. They bring me joy every day and enrich my life in so many ways. Please take the time to ask your child about school life and what he/she is learning each day. If you have questions, please write a note in your child's agenda or call the school at 519-969-9748.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Amy Allison
