Good afternoon parents and families, 

I wanted to provide a few updates for the weeks ahead. 

On Wednesday May 4 we will be visited by SJAM and students will pick out their options.

On Wednesday May 11 we have our first dance residency.

PAT news:

On Wednesday May 18 we have our first Provincial Achievement Test. This test will consist of writing an article based off an information sheet and a story based off a picture. 

This Friday May 6 we will be having our mock (practice) PAT of LA part A to get the students exposed to what the real test will be like. Students that will be working with technology or an adult will be able to practice using these supports as well. 

Next Friday May 13 we will be having a mock LA PAT part B. In Part B students will read passages, poems, stories and articles, which they have to answer multiple choice questions about. The actual PAT is not until June 14th, we are just doing a trial run with some tech and programs.

Thursday May 19 Grade six vaccinations.

Tomorrow we will be building parachutes to test the flight principles of drag and air resistance. If you have any extra supplies such as cardboard, cups, paper, plastic bags we would love to use them!

Have a great day everyone!
