We started off the day today working on sentence writing.  The children were asked to choose 5 of their weekly spelling words and turn them into sentences.  After sentence writing the children worked on phonics where they practiced with rhyming words, compound words, blends and vowel sounds, and they also did their cursive practice.  During math today the students continued working on their addition and subtraction skills.  We also completed our first line of inquiry (climate and weather patterns) today by having a class quiz.  The children will be bringing home their graded quizzes with them tonight.  They also went to music and french class.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, complete Bell Work if necessary, Letters and Sounds pages 34 - 35 and cursive pages 28 - 29.

Important information:  Please remember to help your child bring their home folders, spelling books, homework and agendas back and forth with them every day.  We use these items each day, and not having them in the classroom makes it difficult to complete their tasks. 

Please remember to check the drama, french and music blogs for important information about your child.  These blogs get updated frequently with information that relates to our class.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
