Also, starting this week and running until the 20th of May, is the Jump Rope for Heart event. Students may collect donations online at jumpropeforheart.ca where they will also receive a free skipping rope in the mail just for signing up! They may also collect cash donations by collecting donations an envelope provided from the class. Prize incentives are fun and will be distributed in June.

The new reading incentive started out with a big BANG! The students are very motivated which, of course is important to developing a lifelong love of reading. They may read as often as they like with me in the class. The challenge for the class as a whole is to respect the one-on-one reading periods and to work quietly at these times. I encourage all of the students to practice self-control at these times.
The Retirement Rap went very well. I have a copy in the class if you are interested in seeing it!
The J.E.S Diversity Project is up for viewing in the front lobby of the school for you to come and check out!
Have a great week!
