Dear Grade 3C Families,

The children are excited to partake in some holiday crafts next week. 

We will be busy with many fun activities in all subject areas! 

We have created some lovely Canadian symbolic art on watercolor. 

The children have learned many techniques including adding salt

 for shimmer and dabbing for different effects for creating the 

Northern Lights.

We have also made Peruvian wool art for a craft that you may

 wish to hang on your Christmas tree or hang as a decoration. 

Check out the pictures:

Check out www.whychristmas.com  your child can navigate 

and explain the learning.

We also learned the basics of coding on “scratch” please ask 

your child to show you how they can code.

We are finishing up reading the novel Charlie and the 

Chocolate Factory in class, we will watch the movie on 

Thursday December 12 in the morning. 

Note from SVS: The Christmas season is upon us! It is a time many

 families look forward to the gathering of family and friends, the sharing 

of gifts and a warm meal. Unfortunately, not all families are able to 

participate in many of these activities which most of us take for granted.  

In previous years, the SVS staff and community have had the pleasure 

of being able to help some of our SVS families during this time. We will 

again be supporting a few of our  families by providing them with gift cards. 

The most asked for are to SuperStore and Walmart but any card will be accepted.

You can show your support by purchasing a gift card and dropping it off 

at the office by Friday December 13th. We will then distribute the cards
to the families the last week of school.  Thank you for your generosity and care.
