Good afternoon,

In today's class we started off the day by having our weekly spelling tests and working in our spelling workbooks.  The students will be bringing home their marked spelling tests tonight with them.  We continued on the day working on patterning and word problems in math, and practicing our addition and subtraction.  In language the children worked on adding suffixes onto root words to create new words, and finished writing their rough copies of their letters to Mr. Sawatsky's class.  The children also went to french class.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, re-write incorrect spelling words ten times each, finish Letters and Sounds page 46 - 47 (grade 2) if necessary.

Important information:  Field trip forms for the Heritage Glen Christmas concert are going home with your child tonight.  Please send back the form with $2 by Monday, Dec 6th.  Marked math re-tests are going home with your child tonight.  Please sign the test and send it back with your child by Monday.  Lastly, please see my comments from last night regarding the upcoming Christmas concert.  Costumes and props are in need, and your child has lines in a play that need to be practiced for the upcoming concert!  We are also looking for 'presents' to be used in the concert.  If anyone has time to practice their gift wrapping skills this weekend, and would like to gift wrap an empty box to be used as a prop in the play, please send it in with your child next week.

Have a great weekend!

Mrs. Nelson
