Birthday wishes go out to Bella! And thanks for those scrumptious cupcakes...it was nice to have a treat together!
Today's words are: respect and récréation (recess).
The book bags needed some repairs and will be sent back out tomorrow!
Tomorrow at 2:00 we will join the school for the Terry Fox run (walk) around the block. Please send back those stickers that say, "I am running for...". We talked in class about people our own families who have been sick and may have had cancer. The stickers are a special reminder for those people. Thanks.

Happy Birthday today to Elisha!
A few important things to remember coming up in the next few days:
Tomorrow is Photo Day! You should have received an order form from your child's agenda, in which you can customize your child's picture. KODA Photography from Spruce Grove will be taking the pictues and payments can be given directly to the photographers.
Tomorrow after lunch (1:15) will be the first spotlight assembly of the year! Come by and check out some of the stars of JES!
On Friday after recess, we will be going on our "Leaf Hunt". The more, the merrier, and parents and siblings are welcome to come along for the walk.
Friday is also an Early Dismissal day; students will be dismissed at lunch.
Ask your child to find something in your house that is jaune (yellow), rouge (red), bleu (blue), orange, violet (purple), noir (black), blanc (white) or multicouleur (multicolored).
Ask your child to count from un - dix (one to ten).

Les pommes!
Thanks to Jillian's mom, Kalan's mom and Kiara's dad for helping our class make our "compote de pommes" (applesauce) today. The aroma of cinnamon and apples made our class the envy of the school! The applesauce was so good that the students remarked they not onlydid they like it, they loved it!!!
Thanks also to the parent helpers (Kiara's dad, Kyle dad and Tianna's aunt) for coming along on our field trip to the museum yesterday. Arvin Hilworth's electric train set was fascinating for the kids to see and ask him about. Dressing up in old-fashioned conductor clothes was a fun way to experience the trains of years gone by.
Enjoy your weekend, rest, play and read! See you lundi - Becky

Bonjour les parents,
We are getting busy with the events in our class, and I will keep sending home short reminders with the kids' agendas to keep you all up-to-date with all of the additions and changes.
Tomorrow is our first library day and the kdis are looking forward to their first book selections of the year. I have decided to keep their library books at the school for our afternoon quiet reading period (as a busy parent, I hope you appreciate this as you no longer have to worry about school books getting lost on your shelves or under beds...!).
Thursday has us experiencing our first cookie sale of the year. Please send 2 quarters maximum. We will be going to the Museum at 2:00 on Thursday to view the train display that they have up. In the evening is the parent meeting in Room 6.
Friday we are cooking with apples (les pommes). Please send in an apple (if possible), as well as a bowl and spoon for tasting our creation. We are peeling and cutting up apples from 11-12 and if are available to come in and chop, the help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Becky
