On Friday you should have received a letter re: an upcoming field trip. See email for more information. Please let me know (by email or paper) if you are able to join us.
This week's happenings:
Monday - Library book exchange, assembly, Little buddies
Tuesday - Choir
Wednesday - Music
Thursday - Dictée, BC Shakedown practice, gym
Friday - BC-wide Professional Day for teachers. No school in session.
Français - This week's words are French weather pattern words. We have also been working on writing sentences in class, more specifically, remembering to capitalize the first letter in a sentence, and to include a period at the end. Some students are also working writing their P and p. (The latter one dips below the line).
We also started reading a short French story together about bats. We will use this story as a launching point to learn more about Character, Setting, Problem, and Solution in a story. We will also pick out factual information and take notes about bats.
Math - We have been working on step counting, adding and subtracting since September, and are now working on continuing a pattern using shapes, numbers, and letters. To help your child develop quicker computation skills, I encourage families to play board games with 2 dice, or card games with an element of counting involved such as War or Crib.
P.E. - We have been practicing how to throw a ball with one hand and passing, in preparation with learning how to play European Handball.
Art - For the past few weeks, students have practiced how to draw faces. This week they created an auto-portrait, which will become the cover page for their scrapbook this year.
