It was a very busy week in Grade 3. The students prepared and did a great job with their 3 way conferences. We have been writing up a storm as well, working on narrative writing and readers theatre. We had a special performance and drama workshops as well. We talked this week about mindfulness. Ask your child about using the Take 5 approach when they are feeling that they need to relax, or be calm. Have a great weekend all.

we also have our first book orders of the year, this in from the school library:

Great news – ABIS has a Book Club order running until November 23, 2017!

Once the November 23rd, 2017 deadline date has passed, the order will be confirmed so that all the children’s orders can be dispatched to our school.

If you see the following message instead it means the group order page is closed and you have missed the deadline date. (Thursday November 23, 2017)

Please do not search for another method to place your order. You will need to contact the school or Scholastic for advice on how to proceed.
