Check out our latest songs

Hello/Bonjour!
I have just added our 2 latest songs to the blog under our French songs link section, both about 'le printemps' or springtime.  The children have been enjoying them in class and we are listening for words that we know in French!  Please check them out at home!

Letter and Word of the Week

This week, we are looking at the letter "n".  Lots of our friends have an "n" in their name! The students have been busy discovering lots of words in books that have an "n" in it. Please keep encouraging them to point out letters around them as well as practising their associated sounds.

Our word of the week is "no". We had lots of fun chanting out our no song.  Ask your child to sing it for you!

We are lucky to have Yaki coming to perform for us tomorrow.  It should be a fun morning for the students!

Please ensure that your child is dressed appropriately for the weather.  We go outside if it's sunny, damp, cold etc.  Whatever Mother Nature throws at us, we adapt!

Here are some pictures from yesterday:

Welcome Back!

We had a great first day back! The students were surprised to see tiny green foot prints on the classroom floor.  The leprechaun traps were set up before the break and to our surprise, a leprechaun was trapped!  The kids LOVED it!

Our letters of the week are "th".  The teachers were amazed at the list of "th" words that the students generated.  Our word of the week is "the".  Check out the pictures showing the super writing samples from today.

We welcomed Spring today by talking about the seasonal changes that will be happening hopefully soon! The kids took an interest in rainbows and created beautiful rainbow art.

Reminders:

Please send back the quiet time blankets as well as extra socks and pants.  Once the snow starts melting, the students tend to get soakers and wet pant legs.

Happy March Break!

The leprechauns of Room 138 would like to wish you all a HAPPY and restful break!

The leprechaun traps are coming home today as well as the quiet time blankets.  They need a good washing!

Have a great week!

Week of March 6th

It's hard to believe that it's March 7th and we are having another snow day!

This week our letter of the week is "h" and our word of the week is "he".  Please continue to point these out during nightly reading.

We are busy making leprechaun traps and getting reading for St. Patrick's Day. We are hoping someone in the class is able to catch one!
