Better Timing?

Hi All

This is a test post to check on the blog's automatic email update feature.  I have modified some options that will hopefully result in the email delivery of blog updates coming to your inbox between 7-9 pm. 

I am excited to see so many of you using this feature! 

If you still have not signed up, I have moved the sign up box into the top of the right hand column.  All you have to do is enter your email into the box, and verify by clicking the link in the verification email.  Check your junk mail folder for this if it doesn't show up within a couple of hours.

Have a lovely Friday tomorrow!

A Little Note...

Thank you to all of the families who joined us to celebrate your child's learning during Portfolio Walks.  It is always a treat to reconnect face-to-face with parents, and share your child's progress.  Please remember that you are always encouraged to contact any (or all!) of us if you have questions or concerns.

Reminder: Treat Day forms are due tomorrow (March 14th).

Mme Forman & the students will be starting the Building unit right after Spring break.

During the next few weeks please collect the following items:


  • Boxes (a variety of sizes)
  • shoe boxes
  • empty and clean milk cartons
  • empty and clean plastic milk jugs


  • There are new links to try out on the math page...check them out!

    A portfolio walk is an opportunity to become informed about your child's progress, and an essential part of the student evaluation process.  It is seen by teachers, and should be seen by parents and children, as a time of sharing and celebrating.  Conferences are vital for parents, students and teachers to demonstrate the learning that is taking place.  Parents will get a first hand experience with the kinds of activities their child is doing at school and have the opportunity to observe their level of functioning.

    See you soon!
