We had a super fun afternoon! We decorated sugar cookies and created cell cookies to finish off our cell study. Your child will receive 5 marks for explaining their cookie to you and having a note written in their agenda saying that they have done so. They also have some FRIENDS homework that needs to be completed before coming back on March 24. If you have not returned your child's KSV permission slip please do so. Eagle Bay payments can be made at anytime. New codes are coming home with the grade 4 students today. MS Read-a-thon envelopes are due in after the holiday. Please return your signed report card envelope after the break. Have a wonderful Spring Break! Keep reading your Red Cedar books!!!
