Tomorrow we will most likely have a fire drill. Please speak with your child to reassure them that it is a practice so that we know what to do. It is very important they follow their teacher, move quickly and stay very quiet.
Today we explored our 'My Words' book and noticed Days of the Week, Months, Colours and many other helpful word lists. Throughout the year, students will be encouraged to become more independent spellers by sounding out unknown words, use word lists in the room and also use their 'My Words book' which is like a mini-dictionary. We also had literacy, gym and social studies where we are thinking about what we already know about Evergreen, Calgary, Alberta and Canada. We will continue to learn about different parts of Canada.
In the afternoon we learned a new math game using cards to create clapping color patterns. We also continued to add more details to our 'Happy Place' Box. The creations are so imaginative!
Can you believe that today we finished the Magic Treehouse Book - Dinosaurs Before Dark? You can ask your child ...
* How are Annie and Jack's personalities different?
* What was their favorite part?
* What do they think the M stands for on the medallion?
Important notes:
1) Scholastic due tomorrow if ordering (optional).
2) Please send in an extra set of headphones if your child has some.
often used while using the computers & iPads to reduce noise and increase focus.
3) If you have an extra sock they will be used an eraser for mini whiteboards.
