April News

Hard to believe that we are already well into the month of April.  There are lots of activities going on at PG once again.

I'd like to thank all of the families that sent in items for our raffle baskets.  We will still take items for the baskets on Monday.  We will begin selling tickets school wide this week and hopefully we will raise a significant amount of money to put towards our Medieval Times trip.

Speaking of the trip, we have 13 parent volunteers coming!  Wow!  It is so nice to see parents wanting to be a part of these wonderful experiences!  I plan to send home the final note around the end of the first week of May.  That will give us a few more weeks to fund raise and see how much we can save each student for the trip.

Reflex math - do we all remember that?  A few students are doing a wonderful job of keeping up with their Reflex math.  I encourage all students to still be on the program at least twice a week at home.  After our multiplication "quiz" last week, I am noticing that students have relaxed on practising their facts.  Multiplication is necessary for math throughout the grades, so we will continue to revisit it often.  Keep working!

Popcorn sales are going well.  Depending on how we do this week, we may even order one more shipment. Pop! Pop!  Pop!

The Brock students that we had doing placements with us on a weekly basis have finished up for the year.  That means that I would be very happy to welcome parents into the classroom on any day!  Please send me an email if you are interested in volunteering.  We would love to have you!
