Good morning!
It has been another great week! God blessed us with sunshine and a beautiful day at Westminster Abbey yesterday.  A huge thank you to the parent drivers and supervisors for helping make this day the wonderful success that it was. I have included a few pictures below forwarded to me by parents.

In literacy this week we reviewed genres, which we will continue with again next week.  We also focused on using adjectives, similes and prepositions to write detailed sentences.  For example: The tiny, grey mouse ran across the marble floor as quick as lightning. We will continue to work on this goal in our writing next week.  We will also look at using interesting vocabulary and adding adverbs fto their writers toolkits.

In math, we continued looking at patterns.  We worked on identifying a pattern rule, continuing a pattern and using a pattern rule to write a pattern.  We will continue on with this next week for a final week before we begin addition and subtraction. As well as this, we have been practicing counting in threes and will be moving on to practicing counting in 4s.

New Club: We have started up a Praise and Worship club. Parents, students, and staff are invited to pray together through song every Monday after school in Sister's room from 3pm to 3:30pm .  It is one of my favourite ways to pray. I hope to see you there!

Up coming events:
- Monday, October 31st: Painting pumpkins with their grade 6 buddies
- Tuesday, November 1st:  To celebrate All Saints Day, the children are asked to dress up as a saint of   their choice
