Writing Wednesday

Dear Mom and Dad:

At the end of the day we worked on writing a story using a picture prompt. Ask me to tell you what sequence of pictures that I had to use to help me come up with some of my ideas. My story had to have a beginning, middle and end.  I worked on writing continuously for 30 minutes! My teachers were very impressed as we all used our knowledge of phonics and letter sounds to try and spell words we did not know. I should be able to write independently and trying my best!  

Question of the day: What was your favorite part about today?

Love,

The Rainbow Triad

BIKE TO SCHOOL DAY

Hi boys and girls Cranston is participating in “Ride your bike to school day.”

Bike to School Day 2015 is coming up, and is taking place on June 2, 2015! Over 8,000 kids are expected to be riding their bikes to school year with a growing number of schools joining the initiative. 

On June 2nd, over 50 school and an estimated 8000 students, if not more will be biking to their schools, participating in Calgary Bike to School Day. The mission of this event is to promote healthy active lifestyles in youth and that it can also be fun!  So get on your bikes and ride to school!

SANDWICH MAKING

For those families who were at Cranston last year, you will remember our Sandwich Making Community Project (donations went to the Mustard Seed) that we were involved in and what a HUGE success it was!  For those new to us, throughout the year, we have been working very hard with our students to recognize the importance of giving back to their community.  We would like to participate in this project again this year.  If we could have each student bring in $2 for this project, it will be used to purchase the sandwich items (bread, ham, mustard, butter, cheese slices, Ziploc bags).  Thank you for your support, it is greatly appreciated.
