Our Farewell to Miss Pelletier
We were blessed once again in 3B by having a pre-service teacher join us. Ms. Pelletier was a fantastic addition to our class family! She did a great job teaching our Social Studies unit on the People of Alberta, our PE unit on Soccer and our math unit on Division. The students really enjoyed her warm and caring personality. She is a huge lover of animals, volunteering with animal rescues to foster animals of all shapes and sizes with her family.

Star Student
One of my favourite things about doing Star Student weeks is learning new things about the students in 3B!
Who knew that this little guy and I love the same East Coast singer! On Thursday, we were Alan Doyle concert merch twins!
