It's been great to get to meet so many families over the last month. If I haven't had a chance to connect with you yet, or if you are hoping to meet, please send me an email jstrom@sd73.bc.ca, call the school 250 679 3269 or write a note in your child's agenda.
Currently the students have an agenda challenge. Each day that they arrive with their agenda in the morning and have had it signed by and adult in their life they earn points. If they achieve a minimum of 24 points by the end of the month they will be entered into a draw for 2 blazer tickets. Ask your child how they earn points each day. Many students are continuing to work hard for this achievement!
The students have begun learning about the role of an archeologist. They have learned about the many steps that need to be taken before any digging takes place. There is still a lot more to learn and students will get the opportunity to experience many new activities
During the week, students have been working to finish up assignments. Some students have had more homework this week as they haven't been completing their assignments within the class time. This may be because of absences, they take longer to complete assignments or perhaps they are not using their class time wisely. Please support your child in ensuring that the assignments are completed.
Thank you for supporting your child

It's November!
It's amazing that we are 7 weeks into our school year! Things are becoming more settled at Haldane and I am now working with your children full time. Thanks to Mr. McVittie who helped fill in the gaps.
We are continuing to learn about the Earth's crust and will soon be learning about the rock cycle. In Social Studies, we have begun to learn the role of an archeologist. We have many exciting lessons planned for this unit and we are excited to share these with your children.
In math, students are working very hard in algebra. This is a very challenging unit and students are encouraged to demonstrate their skills regularly with you. Extra practise is important!
If I haven't had a chance to connect with you yet this year, please set up an appointment with me through email jstrom@sd73.bc.ca or calling the school at 679 3269. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
