Good morning,
Mrs. Blakely-Doucette's Grade 8 leadership class is doing a fundraiser for the Miramichi Food Bank as well as the Giving Tree, put on by 95.9 The River. These events will be held on the following dates during the month of December:
December 3rd- Jersey Day
December 11th - Hat Day
December 14th - Twin Day,
December 16th - Crazy Sock Day
December 18th - PJ Day
Also, there will be a challenge for class participation on these days. Teachers will fill out a form that will be sent out to each homeroom teacher in the building where they will then check off how many students participated on each of the days. The classes in K-2, 3-5, 6-8 with the highest participation will win a pizza party when we return from Christmas Break. Please remember that the winners of the challenge are not determined by how much money the class raised, it will be by class participation on each themed day.

I came across 2 "apps" that may be of interest to some who are seeking extra reading resources at home. If interested, you could download the apps and try. I have never used them personally, but I will try and create an account myself once I have a minute.
1) Duolingo (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/duolingo-language-lessons/id570060128).
2) Bloups. There is a free trial for this one, then a paid subscription. I know some students in grade 4 and 5 who are using Bloups and seem to enjoy. https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/bloups/id708457171
Please let me know if you have any questions. Cheers!
