December 9-13

Good morning parents!

Well this is shaping up to be an exciting week! The children are bouncy already. We have two birthdays today, concert tomorrow and a full moon Thursday!

Our concert is tomorrow at 1:10 and then again at 6:00. The children can arrive at the school for the evening show at 5:30. Just bring them to the classroom.

If you need anymore concert tickets please let me know by the end of the day. I have a few for the afternoon and a few for the evening. It will be first come first serve!

We will be having a Christmas socks fundraiser on Monday December 16. Please send in a dollar to support the school.

December 18 is our class field trip to bowling. I will send home the permission slip today. Please sign it and send it back with the money as soon as possible. The cost is $5.00 per student.

December 20 is our Christmas sweaters fundraiser. Please send in a donation of $1.00 if you can.

For Fundations we will be continuing on with last weeks lessons as the children didn’t get a full week and because this week is crazy too.

Math will still be patterns until Christmas break.

Next week we will be doing a good drive for the school. If you have extra food and would like to donate something please send it in with your child.

Have a great week! I’m tired already 😴😴

Concert Tickets

Hello everyone!

I put concert tickets in each students homework folder yesterday. Please take them out and keep what you need and return to the school what you won’t be using.

If there are tickets returned, I can disperse them to those who may need extra tickets for their family to come watch.

Thanks!

Kelley

December 2-6

Well seems I’m working on a better late than never Moro this with the blog! Time is slipping away. I can’t believe we are into the first week of December!

Leaders:

When we have a storm day our leader rotation stays the same. But the person who was supposed to have their leader day on the storm day gets to have theirs the first day back to school as well as the person who has it that day. For example, if Rylan was Wednesday and it was a storm, he can bring it his show and tell Thursday. Alexa who has show and tell Thursday will bring hers too. We will have two leaders and two show and tells that day. This way no one misses their day!! Also if they forget one day, they can bring it the next day. This is an important day for the children and they don’t like to miss it 😊

Literacy:

I will send home the Fundations work today, the printer was not working on Monday.

We have been working really hard on hearing beginning sounds of words. Fundations this week talks about hearing sounds at the end of words. This is a skill that usually comes together for the students closer to the end of the year. Saying this it doesn’t hurt to talk about the ending sounds and encouraging the children’s to hear them.

Numeracy:

We have begun talking about patterns! Soon that is all you will hear about. The children will be noticing them everywhere!! We will recognize patterns, create them, build them and extend them. We will mostly be working on an AB pattern (2 attributes) but will also talk about more challenging patterns ABC, ABB or AAB. Patterns are the foundation for all other numeracy skills.

Other news:

We have no school on Friday. Our last day before Christmas break is Friday December 20 and our first day back is Monday January 6.

Our concert will be December 10th with a storm day of December 13

Have a good week
