Adding Dictee/Spelling Lists to Website

Dear Parents,

To the right of this screen you will notice a new feature that has been added to our website. Here you will find the weekly Dictee/Spelling lists that students receive the first day of each week. Students must still be bringing home their Dictee/Spelling Study duotangs on a nightly basis and must not rely on this online tool. However, we hope this new feature will help to keep you informed as well!

Sincerely,

Mlle Lindberg & Mlle Haley


Please note: The lists have been formatted to fit the screen and are NOT an exact replica of what the students receive (i.e. the verbs are not conjugated). Please see their lists for further info!

Bonjour,

First off Happy Birthday Mikaela and thanks to mom who brought the class cupcakes! They were enjoyed by all.

Secondly, it would be greatly appreciated if students would not bring any lunch or snack items that contain peanuts as we have a student who is allergic. For the first week we have allowed students with peanuts or peanut butter in their lunches to eat in the hallway but due to the volume of kids it is a disruption to the middle school classes next door. Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Agenda Items:

  • Dictee
  • Carte d'identitee
  • Class photo form to be signed
  • Vaccination forms to be filled out
  • Reminder: PE tomorrow so bring strip!!

Have a great evening!
