Good afternoon!
We started off the day today with the children recording their new weekly spelling words and working in their spelling books. The children are examining words that are comprised of l and r blends. In math the children worked on time by identifying times that use quarter and half hours (grade two) and worked with the days of the week (grade one). Ask your child tonight to tell you the role of the big hand and the little hand, and what time it is using an analog clock! In social science we began discussing what the word culture means. We discussed the different cultures our families are comprised of, and began looking into different cultures found in countries around the world. The children also listened to more of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, went to french and went to art classes.
Homework: Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, study for the history test on Wednesday and practice weekly spelling words.
Important information: Please continue to read Mrs. Deras' blog for important information about the upcoming Christmas concert. All children should be practicing their individual lines nightly, as well as the lyrics to Adeste Fideles for the class song. This Wednesday evening we are having parent teacher interviews, and I look forward to chatting with everyone during their time slots. A few students are still missing their Heritage Glen trip forms and $2 for the Christmas concert we are putting on there on the 15th. I sent home a note with the students tonight to remind you.
Best regards,
Mrs. Nelson
