Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don’t give only your care, but give your heart as well –Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Week 4!
Samuel was our star student this week!
Here are a crew of Lexia students who worked hard to pass their level.  Well done!
We did a little review of our numeracy skills in math.

 We also built a concrete graph showing the eye colour in our classroom.
 We learned that the most common colour of eyes in our class is brown.
We did a little painting in art this week.


Our cultural presentation got us up and moving our bodies this week.


Our hard work earned us a full Mr.  Potato Head which means we had our first classroom Reward Day.  
Students voted and created graph to show which movie they decided to watch for their Reward Day.  Bolt was the most popular choice!
We all participated in the Terry Fox Run.  It was a beautiful day for a run!

We played a new game this week.  It's a numeracy game called "Give The Dog A Bone".  Here is the link for those who want to play at home Give The Dog A Bone  The link can also be found on the school Destiny Page.  Here is the link St. John Destiny Page  Enjoy!

Just a gentle reminder that school starts a little earlier this year.  The first bell is at 8:40 am and the second bell is at 8:45 am.   The important business of brain growing begins at 8:45 am so it is best if students are in the classroom before that to get ready for the day ahead.  Anyone who arrives after the 8:45 am bell is marked late and needs to check in at the office.  Thanks for your help in getting our day off to a good start!

Enjoy your weekend!
