Our volleyball unit has started in gym. Ask your child if they can show you the hand and arm position for 'bumping' the ball! Volleyball is not the easiest game to play with 6 year olds but we are sure having fun chasing balls around the gym:)
Friday is a professional development day, so there is no school for students. Monday is Halloween, so of course it will be an exciting day at Woodlands! We invite students to bring their costumes to school to change into after lunch and we will have a fun afternoon with Halloween activities. A few requests:
-please do not bring costume accessories that might get lost or broken
-no costumes with masks please!
-consider the easiness for bathroom visits...a costume will need to be comfortable and easy for the students to put on and take off independently
-no weapons are permitted...light sabres, pirate swords and police firearms must stay at home
If you would like to send your child with a small, manageable 'party food' snack, you are welcome to do so but we ask that you do not send any for the rest of the class. There are so many food restrictions and severe allergies at school that this is very important to keep everybody healthy. Great ideas include a small bag of chips, popcorn or a cookie. Please help us keep costumes clean and dry by not sending sweet, sticky drinks!
If you have any questions or need clarification, please email me at adnicholas@cbe.ab.ca
