This is our week to celebrate Science Olympics. Thursday is the BIG day! Your child will be coming home with the specific colour they will be asked to wear on Thursday. Ask them which colour.

During literacy this morning, we worked on the 'oi' and'oy' sounds. Such words we explored include ointment, choice, recoil, decoy, broil, appoint, loyal, boil, foil. Ask your child how they used these words in a sentence. I also reminded the students that understanding these letter sound combinations is important when they are presented with bigger words in the future.

The idiom of the week is "Bite the Bullet". Try to encourage your child to use this idiom in their conversations. 

Just a reminder that there is no school for students on Friday, April 19th.
