Good afternoon!

We started off the day today working on sentence writing and proofreading.  The students have come a long way with this valuable skill which has been great to see!  During language the children worked on picture words, special sounds and identifying double consonants, as well as cursive.  In our IB unit of inquiry today the children completed a review exercise where they had to list things that are representative of each season, and they also worked in groups to write a story from the perspective of a plant, animal or human about what life would be like without the sun.  During math today the children worked on closer and further (grade one) and missing numbers (grade two).  They also went to music and french classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, and cursive page 36 - 37.

Important information:  Due to absences in the class, we did not write the math re-test today as planned.  The math re-test will take place tomorrow at recess instead.

If you would like to purchase any pictures from the original picture day, the form and money needs to be sent in by this Friday, November 18th.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
