Good afternoon,

In today's class we worked on our vowels and blends, patterning, cursive writing, and had our first history test.  The children also went to music, P.E and french classes.  Our history test was comprehension based, where the children sat and listened to a history based story and then were asked to answer questions about it.  Their marked history test will be going home with them tonight.

Homework for tonight:  Read for 15 minutes and record in reading chart, practise weekly spelling words, finish cursive page 14 if needed, finish patterning (grade one: page 12, grade two: page 18 -19), finishing spelling workbook if needed.

Important information:  Next gym day is on Thursday.  Our class needs to come to school dressed in their gym clothes on Friday for the Terry Fox Run.  Terry Fox pledge forms have been sent home in your child's home folder tonight.  If you would like to donate any money, please send it in with the completed form.
