Another weekend!

It feels like we just started this week and here we are at the end!

We've had a week of lots of writing...two stories, one in English and one in French.  We want to see where we're starting so we have something to look back on as we make goals for the year and think about our progress.  It's important to have these "benchmarks" so we know what we're celebrating as we improve.  :)

We've also had a week of a lot of running.  Today I was a little stiff from sprinting alongside the students in gym class (...or were we racing?)  And then we have running club after school for those of us that participate.  Ah...'tis the season, both for upcoming cross-country races (for those in running club) and for the Terry Fox run this next week.  It's a great way to run for a cause and enjoy our lovely fall weather!

A very important letter went home with grade 5 students today.  In it is a permission form that needs to be filled out and returned by Monday.  You are all very prompt about these things, so I probably don't even need to encourage you to remember to take a look at that this weekend...but oops!--there I just did!

Have a great long weekend everyone.  See you on Monday ready to take more temperatures and do more running!
