This week we went for our Fall walk. Thanks to the many parents that could join us! We examined changes occurring in our community and will use these ideas for both reading, writing and speaking about nature.
We planted some of our cat tail seeds as well. We are ready to watch them grow. How many days do you think it will take to germinate? You may add your comments below.
Home reading went home this week. Feel free to send the book when you are ready for a new one.
Library books- Our book exchange day is Friday. Please remind your child to bring back their books on time so they can get a new book for the weekend.
Math- Graphing and our "getting to know you" study is almost finished. We are moving into understanding how to create numbers to 20 in a variety of ways. The students "rolled their own equations" using dice and white boards. Ask them to show you how!
We continue to work with the day count to represent numbers in many ways.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
We were very thankful this week. We have been discussing the Circle of Courage and the 4 values that help us to be our best. Ask your child to give an example of one way they can show independence at school.
Belonging- I am wanted and appreciated. I belong.
Mastery- I can learn new things and work hard each day. That makes me more masterful. We all have things we are good at.
Independence- I can solve small problems on my own. I can ask for help when stuck. I know how to take care of my things.
Generosity- I can help others feel welcome. I am kind.
CLUBS!! Thanks to everyone who has returned their club choice forms. We will register students into club classes, keeping favourite choices in mind. If you have not returned your form or did not get one, we can interview students on Monday to ensure they get into the proper clubs.
