 "Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do"

-John Wooden


Updates:
Our school is hosting a Scholastic Virtual Book Fair from November 16th to November 27th. 

The Virtual Book Fair is a fantastic way to continue to give our students access to the books they want to read. We’re excited that you will be able to shop together, selecting the books that inspire your readers, from the comfort of home. All purchases benefit our school and earn Rewards that can be redeemed for books and Education Resources for our school’s classrooms and library. 

When it’s time to shop, visit our school’s Virtual Book Fair site using this link: https://bookfairs-canada.myshopify.com/pages/5151379   

Conferences will continue on Friday morning (virtual). Please book your conference with your child's teacher through powerschool.

Families Helping Families

 

As is our tradition at Eric Harvie School, again this year we are calling on your kindness and generosity to help support a family in need at Christmas.  This year, we will be supporting 10 families at Colonel Fred J. Scott School who may need a little extra help to make Christmas brighter.  While in past years we asked for specific gift donations for individual family members, due to the pandemic, this year will look different.   

 

This year we are asking for monetary donations.  These donations will purchase a variety of gift cards (eg. Walmart, Superstore, Safeway) and small stocking stuffers gifted to each member of the 10 families in a stocking.  Parent Council has generously offered their support by collecting the money via direct deposit and helping purchase the gifts.

 

Donations can be made via at

and are welcomed on or before

Our Day:

After our Friendship Journals and Phys. Ed., we continued our morning Literacy routine. This new routine is comprised of two fifteen minute segments where we engage in reading and practice our spelling. During this time, we also meet with the teachers for our reading groups! 

After lunch, we had a fantastic conversation and exploration of the prairie provinces in Canada and the types of resources found there. We're becoming very knowledgeable about the prairies! During Math, we learned about ten frames and part-part-whole methods of addition. 

See you all tomorrow!
