Hi Everyone,
It is hard to believe that February is now here and they are predicting more snow is on the way! We had a good time celebrating Ground Hog Day yesterday, playing shadow tag, tracing each other's shadows while striking a pose and making ground hog puppets. February is going to be a very busy month. We have Club Red activities each week, Valentine's Day and 100 Day! (Please see the February calendar on this blog for details).
We will be celebrating Valentine's Day on the 15th this year due to the Curriculum Day. Thank you in advance to these students for bringing snacks to share on this day: Wyatt (fruit plate), Estelle (veggie plate), Kaitlyn (cheese and crackers), Nevaeh (sweet treat), Marcus (chips), Kayleigh (popcorn or pretzels) and Carter (other).
Here is a list of all of the students in our class so that your child can begin to write Valentine's for everyone:
Kaitlyn, Danika, Estelle, Lily, Max, Marcus, Myra, Alexis, Chase, Kayleigh, Collette, Wyatt, Nevaeh, Quinn, Makena, Carter, Kevin, Royce, Jesse, Chloe, Young Hoon, Rachel and Roman. Please be sure to include a valentine for everyone. Thank you!
We have now begun our spelling program. We will be introducing new words on Mondays and your child will have a good block of time to begin his/her spelling sheet on that day. He/she will also have short blocks of time (10-15min) on Tuesday and Wednesday to continue to work on this. Wednesday nights the spelling duotang will come home to be completed for homework and Friday will be our quiz (5 words plus 1-2 bonus words). I sent home a sheet outlining the program this Monday. If yours did not reach you, please write a note in your child's planner and I will send you a new copy.
February is 'Club R.E.D.' month! This means that your child should be reading every day and then colouring in the heart on the calendar that falls on that date. Please ensure that you are initialling each date before or after they colour. If your calendar has been misplaced I can send you another one. If your child misses a day of reading he/she can make up for it by doubling up the next day.
Have a great weekend, everyone! Enjoy the snow!
