Hello Lincoln Heights!

This coming week:

-Monday is World Teacher Appreciation Day

-Wednesday is the LBP Fun Run for our cross country team 3pm to 5pm

-Friday is our trailblazer training

Shape Safari – October 23rd: Grade 1 and 2 students will explore the connections between math and nature through reading an exciting story about the many different shapes in nature. Students will then design and build an animal shelter using as many shapes and patterns as possible! Curriculum Links: Language (C2), Math (C1, E1), Science and Technology (B2) ESQube is an in-school workshop initiative operated by the Engineering Outreach team at the University of Waterloo. We are strong believers that sparking appreciation for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) at an early age is valuable, and ESQube wants to give ALL youth the opportunity to engage in these hands-on experiences. ESQube is excited to offer FREE STEM workshops to students.

**We are looking for 5 parents to help us with planting 30 trees (with students) October 15th.  Let me know Scott_Dowling@wrdsb.ca if you are able to volunteer for the day!
