Good afternoon!

In today's class we started off the day by working on identifying the sounds of words.  The children also practiced their addition and subtraction, worked on compound words, practised cursive and completed their good copies of their zoo letters.  In P.E the children practised their knowledge of movements and motions by acting out the motions that various animals make in their natural environments.  The variety of motions and what our bodies have to do to make those motions was discussed as a class.  The children also went to music and french classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words for the spelling test tomorrow morning, and complete cursive pages 44 (grade 1) and 43 (grade 2).

Important information:  Tomorrow is our Halloween dress-up day.  Please encourage your child to come to school dressed in their costumes!

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
