November 14-15, 2024

 Hello EES Families!

We all hope that you had a wonderfully relaxing fall break, and it was great to see the students back at school. 

Although we had a very short week at school, we managed to fit in a lot of learning and fun! Students learned about Métis Week and the culture of the Métis people.  We used stories, dance, music and food to help us understand more about what it means to be Métis. The students made dot art pieces of the infinity flag, and worked together to mix and bake bannock. It was delicious!

The students are also beginning to learn about the theme of winter.  Students explored snowmen through art, and will be working on winter through stories, writing sentences, matching and sorting pictures, and a variety of forms of art. Our students also made waffles this week, since they look so much like snowflakes! The waffles were a warm and yummy treat on this chilly day.

*It is getting colder, please ensure that your child has a warm coat, boots, a hat and mittens to keep them warm outside at recess.
