15 Minutes of Fun ABC Life Literacy Canada encourages families to have “15 Minutes of Fun” learning together every day. Engaging in literacy activities as a family improves a child’s skills and also helps adults keep their skills sharp.

Yesterday, Baldonnel students and staff spent an hour with us during our learning in depth hour. Students shared their excitement for learning and we filled the Taylor hill at lunch time with a few students:)

What a day!  Students spent their LiD time today teaching fellow students about their topics.  The students divided into smaller groups and used their ‘public speaking’ strategies to deliver amazing informational sessions.  Congratulations TES students!

Tomorrow TES will be celebrating Family Literacy Day.  Students are welcome to come to school in PJs with their stuffies and blankies in tow.

Every year our staff and students celebrate Christmas in their classrooms and at a family function.  This happens on a three year rotation.  One year we perform a Christmas concert.  Another year we will have a craft night.
