AFS Room 2

Students are enjoying swimming! Because of our cancelled lesson this week, we rescheduled a new swimming date on Thursday, Oct 3. Please let me know if you can volunteer on that day, by writing a note in your child’s agenda. We leave the school at 10:55 am. We swim next week: Sept 30, Oct 1, Oct 2, and Oct 3. Our annual Terry Fox run was this morning.  We read a book about Terry Fox and had a good discussion about his goals and purpose. The students had many questions about cancer and cancer research, many sharing about the impact of cancer on their own families and lives.

Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year!  We are off to a great start in Room 2.  We have been spending time getting to know each other and working to adjust to the routines of grade 1/2. Student agendas were sent home today.  Please sign and return the agenda every day.  The agenda is a great place to communicate things that may impact your child's day, such as an early pick up or an appointment. I look forward to meeting you at conferences.
