How many "OR" words can you
think of? Mrs. Alcock's class is
making a list of OR words. They are
estimating how long it will be.
Maybe it will reach right down to
Mr. Statia's office ... OR further!
Grade 3 and Mrs. Hooftman have
been studying the effects of smoking
and second-hand smoke. National
Non -Smoking Week was Jan. 14-20.
The class learned that smoking even
one pack a day will shorten your life
span by 20 years. Stopping smoking
now will add -20 years to your life.
Stop before you start ... Stop Now!
