Power is back on in the classroom! Classes are on for this evening.

What a wonderful way to wrap up a very successful Spring Session! Congratulations to Abbey and Will-Jay who both just completed their amazing creative writing stories. When asked if they knew they were capable of such a great accomplishment, both shook their heads, then smiled full of pride in themselves! Well done, you two!

Here's sending thanks to all of the amazing families and children who continue to brighten our classroom with enthusiasm and learning success each day! Shore Side is happy to celebrate our sixth anniversary here in Bridgewater!

Today, we celebrate Michael's wonderful achievement: winning his grade's Heritage Fair! Michael wrote a wonderful and engaging report on one of my favourite areas of study, and absolutely smashed it! Way to go, Michael, and best of luck at Regionals! I am so proud of you!! :)

I cannot imagine a better way to spend my 15th teaching anniversary than with a bunch of amazing kids in the classroom over March Break! Fifteen years of working with fantastic children, phenomenal programs, and wonderful families makes me feel incredibly lucky! Thanks to all of you who have filled those years with joy, laughter, and the love of learning! :)

It is truly a heartwarming moment when one of your students decides to not only share their experience in the SpellRead program with all of their classmates through their speech festival, but also brings it in to class to present it to me! Nick very lovingly and conscientiously crafted his speech detailing his time at Shore Side. What a proud moment--Thank you, Nick! :)

"Hi, my name is Nicholas and I am here to talk to you about SpellRead. SpellRead is a program to help you with reading and writing. SpellRead has made me more confident with myself in Language Arts. The SpellRead program focuses on developing the student's mind. Before you start SpellRead they do an assessment on you. The book I am reading in SpellRead is 'Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief.' This book is one of my favourite book series. SpellRead has helped me a lot in my reading. That's why I am at this high of reading level. What I do when I go to SpellRead is I start with some flash cards of consonants and vowels and I read a book. After I am done reading I write about what I read. When I am at SpellRead I work one on one with my SpellRead teacher, Tara. SpellRead's main focus is to develop letter-sound relationships. My favourite part of SpellRead is reading. I learned to keep my finger on the page. SpellRead helps to develop your brain. SpellRead is known as a successful program. Students and educators see progress from the first lesson. SpellRead has helped me read out loud in class and develop a greater love for reading. Thank you for your time. I hope you liked my speech."

With the impending storm already affecting us, it looks like our second day of classes will have to wait! All classes for Thursday, January 4th will be rescheduled to a later date. Please stay warm and safe, everyone!

After a lovely Christmas break, we are looking forward to beginning another successful year of learning! Wishing all of our families a happy and healthy 2018!
