We had a very busy week with our sports teams. Congratulations to our junior boys and girls soccer teams, our track and field finalists, and our ultimate Frisbee and cricket teams. All of our teams made LKS proud for displaying excellent sportsmanship and skill; we will be recognizing your efforts at the Athletic Assembly next week. Thank you to Mr. Kuru, Ms. Walker, Mr. Bracht, Mrs. Hall, Mr. Ourique, and Mr. Ross for your commitment to coaching.
Thanks to all of the parents and families who attended our grade 3 pioneer open houses. What a wonderful opportunity to really see what the students have learned this term. It was an amazing culminating activity to solidify their skills and knowledge.
Our grade 3-8 students completed our spring CTBS. Overall they scored very well in reading, language and math; all grades have progressed from the fall. On Monday, we will post a letter on our website under DATA if you want specific information.
We hosted our volunteer tea yesterday, and it was nice seeing so many people. Our staff would like to thank all of our volunteers for your interest and support. We would not be LKS without you. If you did not receive your token of appreciation, please make sure you pick it up on Mrs. Sheppard's desk. Thanks to Mrs. Dacyshyn, Mrs. Younger, Mrs. Seitz and Mrs. Heath for organizing our celebration.
Have a wonderful weekend celebrating Father's Day!

We'd like to welcome back our grade 8 students from Quebec. They should be arriving in the next few hours. We heard through the grapevine they had a great time! As many of you can recall, this will be something they will always remember. I really want to thank Mr. Ellerker and Ms. Chandra for being instrumental in the organization, along with Mr. Kuru, Ms. Hoffman, Ms. Dacyshyn and Ms. Bell (an assistant) for supervising the trip. Thank you for supporting the students; we know this trip takes you from your family and responsibilities for a week.
We are looking forward to our grade 8 Graduation on the 24th and celebrating with our families and friends.
I also want to extend an apology and thank you to Mr. Samotowka and Mr. Goldberg for their commitment to our music program and our concerts. I neglected to thank them along with the rest of the staff last week; I thought I thanked them the week before. I apologize. The students certainly wouldn't be where they are in their playing if it wasn't for you.
This week, our grade 6 and 7 students had two presentations on Internet safety and beauty myths respectively. Both were great presentations as they focused on the the good things the wild, wild web has to offer, along with the negative aspects of it. Please ask your child about the presentations and continue to follow up at home with these discussions. Next year, the staff Safety Committee and student safety reps are going to continue focusing on these themes. They may be planning some kind of powering down campaign-maybe a 24 hour social network fast!
Again, I'd like to thank Mrs. Laco for organizing our Pizza Lunches. Our last one will be on the last day of school when we have Lunch on the Lawn. Today, Mr. Kuru's class helped out and they were terrific leaders. Mrs. Laco is to be commended as it takes a lot of time and preplanning to feed approximately 500 students. Thank you to our grade parents for organizing our parent volunteers.
Congratulations to our Senior Girls Soccer team for placing second in the City Finals. As you can see from the dates below, we have a busy upcoming week with more finals. Congratulations to our athletes for your perseverance and dedication. We will be celebrating all of our teams (and house league participants) at the year end Athletic Assembly in two weeks.
Finally, report cards do go home on the 27th. We will be busy making final assessments and evaluations over the next two weeks. Please remember to take a look at the Promotion, Transfer and Retention Procedures on our website. As many of you know, we do have a high rate of promotion at the school, but it is important to know what the PTR says. If there were areas of concerns, teachers and parents would have been in discussions throughout the term. If you have questions regarding this, please speak to your homeroom or rotary teacher (junior and intermediate). The website also has the 2011-2012 day schedule and year calendar.
I hope you have a great weekend. We look forward to seeing you at Parent Council on Monday to discuss the budget and the Volunteer Tea on Thursday.

I'd like to thank you for supporting our music programs at LKS. We had our Middle School concert on Wednesday and our Primary/Junior on Thursday. Both nights gave the students an opportunity to showcase their talents for us. What a great night of entertainment. Music plays such an important part in our lives and it is live and well at LKS! Once again, thank you to Ms. Hoffman for playing a lead in the organization and Ms. McGee for the hours spent rehearsing. An additional thanks to Mrs. Adair for helping with choir and Mr. Littlejohn for hosting our guitar club this year.
Our grade 3 and 6 students finished EQAO this week. We will look for the results in the Fall.
We hope our grade 8 students have a great time in Quebec next week.

Today, we wished Ms. Van Schoor good wishes as she will be having a new baby girl pretty soon. We welcome Mrs. Champgane to 2B for the remainder of the year. Mrs. Champgane has been at LKS for years and is quite familiar with end of year routines.
Thank you to all the students who participated in our Track and Field events today. It was a cold day to be outside all day. Congratulations to all of the students who tried their best, and a special note to those who will be moving to the next round. An additional congratulations to all of our athletes on the Ultimate Frisbee and soccer teams as they played many of their first games this week.
Thank you to Mrs. McGee and the parent volunteers who helped organize another successful Book Fair. The students really enjoy the book fairs and the proceeds are always helpful when booking future author visits and literacy events.
A final thank you to Mr. Samatowka for organizing our drumming performance for our grade 7 & 8 classes. The performance was spectacular; I'm sure our drummers were inspired!
The character trait for June is Perseverance. We hope that your family will have discussions around this very important trait.
Good luck to our grade 3 and 6 students as they begin EQAO next week. We hope to see you at our Spring Concerts next week.

A big thank you to all the parents who organized this year's Springfest. Months of planning went into another successful event on Saturday. Springfest has been a long tradition at LKS and the kids look forward to it every year. A special thank you to Mrs. Kidd and Mrs. Fuda for your efforts as co-chairs.
We had a couple of incidents in the past week that you should know about. First, another car was broken into at lunch during pick up. Just a quick reminder not to leave any valuables in your car if parked around the school. The burglaries are quick and easy for these "purse snatchers". Secondly, please continue to review street proofing tips with your children if a stranger approaches them on the street. There have been some reporting of stopping some of the kids in our neighbourhood and south of Lakeshore.
Please remember that there is no school tomorrow (PA Day) and Monday (Victoria Day). Staff are at workshops, evaluating and/or team planning. I hope you have a great long weekend with your friends and family.

Parking
Apparently, the City will be laying cement for the pool on Thursday morning, so the back parking lot is closed. Please keep remaining spots for staff. We thank you in advance.
As you can see from our calendar, a lot of our students were engaged in some valuable lessons this week around the environment. Many of the activities are taking the children outside the classroom (i.e. Pioneer Village) which provides the opportunity to follow up on lessons taught within the class. There is a strong research base for learning outside the classroom, and we try to get the kids out on as many experiences as possible throughout their schooling. In the "old" days, the Board use to pay for transportation, but nowadays funds are taken from school budgets and/or requested from parents, therefore curtailing the amount of trips we would like to take. We thank you for supporting your child's experiential learning.
This week, staff reviewed "Blooms Taxonomy" focusing on the importance of student higher level thinking and asking a variety of questions that will engage the students at different levels. Those of you who are familiar with Blooms will know that higher level thinking questions will ask students to create (i.e. Can you propose an alternative to...? ) rather than just focusing on basic questions like (i.e. What is...?). As teachers, we use all types of questions depending on the task. If you want to learn more about questioning and how to incorporate these strategies at home, the following link may help:

There is an upcoming Ward Meeting with the Trustee and TDSB Director Chris Spence at Islington Public School on May 26th @ 7:00 p.m. Please RSVP to Adam Sproat at Adam.Sproat@tdsb.on.ca. If you require child-minding, please include the age of your child and any special needs.
In closing, just a note to our families who were impacted by the attacks on 9/11; our hearts have been with you this week and will continue to be so.
Have a wonderful weekend celebrating with your mom and the other terrific women in your life.
