Good afternoon!

We started off the day today by working on language.  The children worked on the difference between 'learn' and 'teach', answered riddles, determined opposites, created sentences and identified special sounds.  During math the children worked on measurement, addition and subtraction, and place value.  We also read chapter 8 of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe and worked on that chapter of our book study in our literature groups. The children had free time in the computer labs today where they played on either pbskids.org or kidsnumbers.com.  They also went to french class.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, Letters and Sounds page 82 - 83, math page 119, and complete book study chapter 8 if necessary.

Important information:  The math re-test was completed at lunch recess today.  The marked re-tests will be going home with your child this evening.

On Tuesday, March 1st St. Jude's Academy is having our annual pancake eating contest in the morning.  All children will be competing in their houses.  If there are any allergy concerns that may prohibit your child from participating please let me know by Monday.

Have a great weekend!
