Good afternoon!

In today's class the students started off the day by working in their journals.  They were asked to proofread sentences and then correctly write them in their journals, and to draw a picture that illustrates the story.  The children also practiced their cursive, worked with opposites and syllables (grade one) and prefixes (grade two) and read more of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.  Today the children also went to P.E, music and french classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, finish cursive page 65 - 66 (grade two), and Language page 57 - 58 (grade two).

Important information:  Tomorrow is our next history test.  Please make sure you have been reviewing the study notes I posted for the test last week.  Tomorrow is also pizza day and parent/teacher interview night.  Thank you to those students who have begun bringing in their props for the Christmas concert.  I am collecting all costume and set items for Mrs. Deras.  So whenever you have items ready to send in, please feel free!

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
