Due to the weather forecast for this week we have changed our annual Terry Fox Run to Tuesday September 25th. We will start with a quick assembly in the gym at 1:30pm. Everyone is welcome. We are collecting Toonies for Terry from Monday September 24th to Friday September 28th. You can also go to: http://www.terryfox.ca/BeddingtonHeights to donate online. Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather and wearing appropriate shoes to run (running shoes). Thank you for your support.
"Who was Terry Fox?"
I asked this question this morning and got some pretty interesting answers. We created a chart together where we could brainstorm all the things we knew about Terry Fox and then students made their own in their reading journal. We had a look at a few short videos that highlighted his struggle with cancer and his dream to raise money so other children would have hope when faced with cancer. He was a remarkable Canadian and we will celebrate his life and legacy tomorrow with our school run. Please consider donating a toonie for Terry.
We started practicing for the SLA test this afternoon. We practiced the reading comprehension together talking about how to choose the best answer and how to help ourselves when stuck. You can practice at home at SLA Government of Alberta - https://public.education.alberta.ca/assessment/
ALL students will need headphones at school ASAP.
Terry Fox run tomorrow @ 1:30 pm
Pillars of Care Assembly Friday @ 8:15 am
