Congratulations!!!  You have successfully completed your first week in school!!  I look forward to working with all of you next week and throughout the school year!  Thank you to students/parents who have brought in the necessary school forms and learning materials  :o)

Please discuss and return these forms as we begin to showcase/highlight our class community of learners in our class Twitter account (@McM_MsT) and other forums.
*Media Release form sent home 
**A TDSB package of forms (Permission, Medical Information) 
***Field Trip to TUSC Rock Walk form sent home (return form &/or funds by Monday Sept 10th)
**** Field Trip to Toronto Reference Library form sent home (return form by Monday Sept 10th)

READING: students are reminded to bring a book to school to read, they are also invited to borrow books from our classroom library. DAILY reading at home is encouraged. The Toronto Public Library is a wonderful place to borrow and sign out books or ebooks. I have sent home a copy of a form to apply for a library card as we will be visiting them to sign out books and take part in events this school year.

Indoor/Outdoor Shoes: to maintain our flexible seating options in our class community and to be prepared for gym during physical activities, please bring a pair of indoor shoes to wear during the instructional day and kept in their backpacks at the end of the day.

The ARTS: introduction to Colour Terminology, colour package/guide

Class Community: Students have been asked to bring in one or two objects that share a bit about who they are (interests/passion) and their favourite book to share during their assigned date/time. Students, please review the task/handout in order to be prepared for your sharing :)
