O c t o b e r 2 0 1 8 Principal & Vice-Principal’s Message

Response to Intervention (RTI) The start of our school year has been very exciting and extremely busy. Over the

past three weeks our team of teachers have spent time getting to know each student

academically by assessing and analyzing their reading and writing skills.

This is extremely important as it helps the teacher pinpoint specific reading/writing

skills each child needs to work on in order to increase his/her reading/writing achieve-

ment and enhance their learning. Our team of teachers instruct these targeted skills

to the students who require further assistance in their reading/writing during half an

hour blocks every day, this is called Response to Intervention.

Response to Intervention (RTI) is MORE teaching time on top of the regular Language

Arts minutes and is devoted to teaching the specific reading/writing skills each child

needs. This year, students requiring extra assistance in K—Gr.4 will be receiving RTI.

If your child is participating in RTI, a note will be sent home explaining that your child

is involved in RTI and the skill being worked on. If you have any questions, please

contact your child's classroom teacher.

SCC (Parent Council) Over the years our SCC fundraising efforts have really paid

off! With the money earned, the SCC has been able to assist

in purchasing home reading books, furniture and learning

materials for our Learning Commons (library), assist with

year end trips, monthly attendance awards, and purchase

several alternate seating options. Thank you SCC! If you

would like to be involved in our SCC parent council, elections will be held on

October 2nd at 7:30pm at Lakeview School. Please come and enjoy an evening

with other parents.

School Hours Please be aware that our outside supervision starts at 8:35. Please send your children

to school after 8:35. Students are welcome to go into the library at 8:35 to read

and enjoy our Learning Commons area.

Thank-You A huge shout-out to President’s Choice Children’s Charity for the nutrition grant which

assists in providing a daily snack for our students.

Also, thank-you to Extra Foods for the donation of bags of mulch which beautified the

front of our school. Your support is very much appreciated!

SaskTel - I AM Stronger Grant Lakeview School is proud to announce that we have been se-

lected again this year for the third time to receive a Sasktel “I

am Stronger” Grant to continue with our Grade 4 Clusters

of Kindness Project. Thanks to Mrs. Munroe for organiz-

ing this

project! Your group has had a huge impact in the community

of Meadow Lake!

October is International Walk to School Month October is International Walk & Bike to School Month (iWALK). The iWalk campaign

emphasizes that preserving the environment requires everyone to collectively do their

part in any way possible. Lakeview is participating by having every Wednesday this

month as a “Walk and Wheel Wednesday”. Your child will receive a passport to have

stamped each Wednesday if they ‘walk or wheel’ to school. If they are a bus student,

they can walk around the field twice then come in to get their passport stamped. Once

the month is up, each student passport will be entered for a prize!

The official Walk to School Day is October 10th!!

Parking & Pick Up Please avoid dropping off and picking up

your child across from the school as there

has been a few close calls when students

are crossing the street. Please use our

crosswalks so that your child is not running

between buses or through the bus lanes.

Please avoid parking in the staff parking

lot at the end of the day. Safety is our

number one concern!
