Valentine's Cards Message:



The Kindness Pod teachers had a discussion about Valentine's Day and cards going home.  Because we work as a pod we thought it would be very difficult and too time consuming to ask students to create 100 cards to give to everyone in the pod, we decided that perhaps it would be best if students created one "Super Kindness Card" to make at home to give to one other person in our pod, kind of like our Christmas ornament.  Students can choose to make it at school during Ignite or at home, or a bit of both if they'd like.  Because there is no school on Valentines Day, we will exchange "Super Kindness Cards" on the 12th.  They will then pick a name of a student from the pod that they will give their card to.  That week we will also be doing some other "Random Acts from Kindness" around the school such as making and giving bracelets to people they see who are being kind.


Winter Sports Day was cancelled today due to the - 25 degree weather.  The best date for the school to make up the event happens to be on the 13th and unfortunately Mountain View and Wild Rose will be on a field trip.  We will make up our own Winter Play Day when it works for our pod by planning an afternoon of fun activities and events outside.


Please make sure all Calgary Reads House and Library field trip forms are returned.  


Today our assembly groups met.  The sports group worked on their props today with cardboard.  The art play group made shadow puppets for their play.  The music group played together in small groups to make rhythms.  The dance play group is practically ready to perform!
