We did an experiment with primary colour mixing today to see if we could experience an optical illusion. Ask your child to show you what they made and took home to trick the eye into seeing secondary colours. (You will need a pencil and some tape to make it work).
We had two very snowy/windy recesses today. Thank you for sending your child ready for the weather. A big BIG help to all teachers is to help your child be independent with dressing for winter. If your child struggles to do up zippers, put on gloves and pull snow pants over boots please spend some time practicing these independent skills.
Here is a note about our school's cold weather policy:
Dress for Success | Winter Weather Reminder
|
Students go outside at recess and at noon hour to play, socialize and exercise unless the temperature drops below -20 degrees celsius with the windchill. With Calgary weather being so unpredictable, students must be prepared for changing weather conditions with proper winter coats, snow pants, hats, boots and warm mittens each day. Many students are coming to school unprepared for the outdoor conditions. Please ensure your child has all essential outdoor items before they leave home. It's no fun making snow angels without your mittens! CBE schools rarely close due to snow or cold temperatures. All CBE schools remain open to provide a safe, warm and secure environment for students. We respect parents/guardians right to make their own decisions about sending their children to school during extreme weather events. If your child will not be attending classes please ensure you contact the attendance line to report the absence (403) 777-8640 ext 1. |
