Updates for the week of May 7-10

Hello families of Division 11!

- No Spelling next week (short week)
- Monday is a professional day
- ***Edited*** the week after next week is Book Week; I was mixed up and thought it was next week! The week of May 13-17 will be celebrating books in our classroom all week long. Students can bring in a favourite book for each day of the week to share with their table groups and the class.
- Friday May 17 will be Cozy up with a Good Book Day, and kids can wear their pyjamas and bring a flashlight for reading
- Scholastic orders due by May 10; I think it will be the last order before the summer break

Have a wonderful weekend!

Mrs. Startup

4. community

5. country

6. cycle
