Good afternoon!

It is very nice to be back to school and see all the familiar faces we have all been missing over the Christmas vacation!  I hope everyone had a restful and relaxing holiday season.
We started off the day today working on our spelling.  The students copied down the new weekly spelling words and worked in their spelling workbooks.  We had sharing time today where we all shared the top two moments of our Christmas vacations.  I really enjoyed hearing all the stories!  The children then wrote about their vacations in their journals.  We read another chapter of Charlotte's Web today called Off to the Fair which the students really enjoyed.  During math today the students worked on correcting the cores of patterns (grade one) and adding and subtracting (grade two).  They also went to french and music classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, spelling workbook page 61 - 64 (grade one) page 57 - 60 (grade two), cursive page72 - 73 and math page 100 - 101.

Important information:  I am sending home the new January reading chart with the students tonight.  December was a crazy month I know, and reading was not documented every night which is understandable.  Please make sure to get back on track with your child starting tonight!

I want to remind all parents that agendas should be read and signed each and every night.  Students will get stickers and house points for agendas that have been read and signed.  Please help me to make sure that homework is being completed and important information is being communicated.


Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
