Hi all,
Just two announcements:
- Ramadan is coming up… if your child is fasting, please send me a quick email (shannon.jorgensen@ocdsb.ca) with any instructions. Particularly, if your child seems very hot or tired during Ramadan, do you want them to a) have water, b) have a snack or c) call home. Different families have different preferences, so please let me know yours. Please also let me know the dates that they are fasting. I plan to have a separate space for these children in the class at lunch so that they don’t have to be directly in front of food during this time. Also, they can choose to sit out during gym activities. Recess is a bit harder, as I am outside on duty with them – but if they are too hot/thirsty outside, they can feel free to tell a teacher on duty and go into the air conditioned office/library.
- The CHEO book fair is continuing this week with sale prices of 25c per book. If your child brings change, they can buy books during 1st recess all week.
Eek – it’s almost June already!!!! I can’t believe how fast this year has flown by…. sniff sniff!
