Week of November 7-11

Today we talked about Remembrance Day and the poppy.  We are learning a song about peace.  Ask your child to sing it for you.  It's a catchy tune!  The students were busy writing, drawing and creating things to do with Remembrance Day and poppies.  We also learned that many family members are in the military.  We want to thank you for your service and all that you do to help us live in such a safe and amazing country.

Our letter of the week is "t" and our word is "it".  The sk students produced excellent writing samples using "it".  Please have your child point out our word of the week while reading.  They all seem keen in finding our popcorn words while looking at books in the classroom.

In Math we are continuing to look at patterns, number recognition and number composition and decomposition.

Reminders:

Photos- please remember to send back your orders for school photos.  Photo retakes will be on November 16th.  The photo packages are due this Friday, November 11th.

Parent/Teacher interviews will be held this Thursday.   You can sign up for a time online using the link that the school had sent home via email.  We look forward to seeing you!

The blankets were sent home on Friday for a washing.  Please send them back as soon as they are washed.
