Reading...Give it a Shot
BHS has enrolled in the Calgary Flames reading program.  Students will be bringing home tracking sheets to monitor how much they read each day.  Can you please sign the spot needed if they are reading at home?  1hr read = 1 Flames hockey card in grade 6.  Once they collect all 24, they can move onto the bonus card collection of Harvey the Hound doing funny things! The reading competition starts now and ends early December.   The more they read the more chance we have of the Calgary Flames visiting our school! Thank you for your support and work with encouraging your child to read! Go Flames Go!


Today we did our basic fact tri-weekly quiz.  We will be marking it tomorrow as a class while the students who were away complete it.  We had music, library, dance and in between that worked on our poetry anthology projects.

In the afternoon students worked on designing/building their cities and their service write-ups.  In science they are learning how to press leaves and label all the parts of the different leaf types.

We hope everyone has a wordy Wednesday!
