Hi folks!

Happy Monday! Have I mentioned how fabulous our class is today?! We have made great strides in our classroom routines and setting up expectations. They're doing great! I snapped a few pictures to post but of course our school website is down. Once I have them up, I'll send a quick shout out via email.

Students are currently being assessed in their sight words and reading levels in both French and English. I hope to have them done by the end of the week or early next week. Once this is established, you'll get a note to inform you of where your child is at and where we want them to be. Stay tuned! For now, homework is simply odds and ends, getting to bed early and starting good communication between home and school.

Cross-country has started up today with practices/meets afterschool. Since you have a list of practices/meets, I'm going to assume your child has arrangements made for pickup. A quick note in the agenda or email is appreciated to reassure your child all is a go.

Soccer permission pages are due tomorrow (Tuesday, Sept 11th) for those children that were interested. Practices for soccer start next week.

Here are a few routine reminders for you. All for now!

Reminders for this week:

Monday - already done, check!

Tuesday - 

Wednesday - our first library day

Thursday - change of clothes for gym

Friday - change of clothes for gym

First day back

Hi folks!

When I said we have a great groups of kids, boy was I right! Amazing day! We organized the class, started speaking in French and gained some points for free time to use tomorrow. You may find a bag of liquid glue, permanent markers and looseleaf in your student's bookbag. You can have these back and save them for next year - I have plenty.

Thank you to everyone for replying to my first email. Bussing was made easy this year! Clearly the parents and guardians are just as wonderful as the students! Also wonderful in our class this year is Mme Young. She is a UNB student-teacher who will be in and out of our class all year. Mme Andrée-Anne is also at our school for another year for small group activities in French.

If you still have items to bring in, feel free to send them in. Specifically, students will be needing their deck of cards. $2 Agenda & $6 recorder (grade 3 only) money is also being collected and a receipt will be issued when received, starting tomorrow.

All for now!

Welcome to 3/4 Robichaud!

Hi folks!

My name is Maggie Robichaud and I will be your child's teacher this year. We have such a wonderful group of students! In our class we will have a nice balance of 9 grade 3 students and 14 grade 4 students. Don't worry - each child will complete work at their level. Nice try grade 4!

School starts for all of our class on Tuesday, September 5th and the cafeteria will NOT be open that day (nice try parents!). Throughout the week you'll receive lots of papers and memos, including one of what to expect in our class.

For now, I need one thing from you at this time. Please reply to this email and let me know what your child's after school arrangements will be for the first week of school. If they are going to be picked up, please let me know who will be picking them up. If they are going to take a bus, please provide the civic address of where they will be going. 

If you have any other questions, please reach out.

Looking forward to the year ahead,

- Mme Robichaud

Two more days

Hi folks!

Two more days!!

We've decided to cancel tomorrow's biking day. There are some school-wide activities planned and we want to take part. So again, no need for bikes/scooters tomorrow.

Also, Friday is technically a full day. There are activities planned in the morning with the school. Report card will also go home that day. If you plan to pickup your child early on Friday or have different plans than usual, please let me know.

All for now!

Hi Folks!

Tomorrow is our field trip to Hay Island. Please dress appropriately for the weather (raingear, bug spray, sunscreen). We will be leaving the school promptly at 9am. A bagged lunch and water is necessary. Here's to some great memories!

If you're looking to volunteer, we are asking for help with Field Day next week. It is on Tuesday, June 20th and the rain date is on Thursday, June 22nd. Please let me know if you're able to help one or both days! The school is also having a fun day for the K-2 students. They are really needing volunteers for that too - same days.

All for now.

Hi folks!

A Field Trip memo went home today about our trip to Hay Island on Friday, June 16th. Please return the bottom half of the page and money in the coming days. We had planned a walk tomorrow to the library and another to the police station on Friday but it looks like rain may prevent our adventures. It's 98% likely we will have to reschedule for next week. There are a lot of activities planned for the end of the year. I plan to send home a calendar on Monday with dates etc.

We will be doing a rock project on Thursday. Students are asked to bring in a rock to paint. Not too big or too small please! I have a few extra but not enough for the entire class.

The cafeteria's special meal forms and money are due on Tuesday, June 13th. The meal will be on Wednesday, June 21st.

Lastly, our class is working towards a pj day (they love their pjs!), stuffie, movie afternoon! A little reward to help with the end of year push to stay motivated.

Our reminders:

WED: recorder, possible library card

THURS: gym clothes, a rock to paint

FRI: gym clothes, possible walking shoes

 

Don't forget to check out our class page with photos and videos of what we've been up to! Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)

Grade 3: Math Bar graphs and then geometry shapes etc, writing about careers

Grade 4: Math graphing and pictographs and the 3d geometry etc, writing about rocks and minerals.

 

Any library books from the Chatham Public Library are due on May 31st. If you'd like to send them in to me, I don't mind dropping them off.

 

Our reminders for this week:

Mon: gym clothes needed

Tues: recorder needed, dress rehearsal for drama/choir students (until 5pm), assembly about Sistema, special memo!!! Principal for the Day rules!

Beauty and the Beast

Hi folks!

KSE drama students and choir members have been working hard to present BEAUTY AND THE BEST! The whole school will see the performance next week during the school day. Evening performances will be on Thursday, June 1st and Friday, June 2nd and tickets are required. A memo has already gone home with choir and drama members about this. Now, non-drama and non-choir students will have the chance to reserve tickets for the evening performance (if they want to see it a second time, or family members would like to attend).

It's sure to be a hit!

As always, any questions reach out.
