The Invisible Boy

Tanga evening is on tomorrow from 6:00pm – 7:30pm at Cranston School. Parents can come and look at their child’s art and purchase the art for $10.00. All of the proceeds go directly to Tanga School in Tanzania. If you are not able to make it and would like to purchase your child’s art, please e-mail your teacher and they will put a SOLD sticker on their art. You can send the money with your child to school.

Dear Mom and Dad:

Thank you to those who wore PINK to represent that bullying is not ok! We read a story called "The Invisible Boy". Ask me to tell you about this story. We talked about the important message this book brings. We discussed how some of us might have felt like we were invisible before. We all made a promise that we would always try to not make others feel invisible and continue to be bucket fillers.

Today we focused on the letter Rr. We listened to the Jolly Phonics song. Ask me to tell you what sound Rr makes.

We did a guided drawing of a rabbit as well! Ask me toe draw you the upper case and lower case letter of Rr in the air. Please remind me to start my letters at the top. I can practice writing Rr’s for you as well.

Question of the day: Post on the blog what you did in your literacy groups today.

Love,
Kindergarten


Housekeeping:

Monday February 29 is National Cupcake Day!

Cranston will be celebrating national cupcake day in support of the Alberta Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Alberta SPCA).

As a part of our Community Building work at Cranston School, students will have the opportunity to purchase one cupcake on Monday February 29th for $1.00. All of the proceeds will be donated to the Alberta SPCA. 

Please have your child bring exact change ie. (loonies,quarters). We do expect that there will be extra cupcakes and students will be given an opportunity to purchase a second cupcake later in the day. A huge thank you to the volunteers who are donating cupcakes for Monday.

Thank you again for your support!
