Have a wonderful Halloween! 

A couple of things - first off, there is no dictée this week. I know it will be busy with Halloween festivities. 

Second, we did all kinds of pumpkin activities today. Their worksheet will be coming home tomorrow after we do a final tally. Here are some photos from the messy fun today. 

Here are the voting results from our class. It was so great to see all the kids voting. I’ve also attached some other pictures of our last week 

Exciting news! We will be participating in the CIVIX Student Vote. You can find their website here to learn more.

We will be running a mock civic election in the class and students will get to vote for the same candidates as will be on the official ballot in Vancouver.

I will be teaching the main political parties' platforms in class, but I ask you to talk to your students about the different issues being spoken about in this election. Students will be taking 'cheat sheets' to the ballots, so feel free to help your students make them as you are speaking about the issues.
