Hi everyone! Brrrr! What a very cold weekend.I hope everyone stayed nice and warm. February is well under way and we have a very busy month ahead of us. Our school fundraiser has begun. Please collect pledges and study your math facts this week.

Literacy- Please read your Borrow-A-Books each night. We have  3 books this week.Two books are levelled readers and one is a paper copy sight word book, "My Letter M Book".The children have coloured and read this book in class.Be sure to read at least 1 or 2 of your 3 books each night. Read the ABC Letter Tracing Book, until your child knows all letters and sounds. As students read their three books, have them point to each word and stop at the period.Use the pictures for cues to help identify the words. Students should be recognizing some familiar sight words from list 1 and 2. Please remember to fill in the reading log each night and have your child print their name.Return all books, even the student coloured books to class. The children use these books in their Read-to Self book bags.Please return books in the borrow-a-book bag,on Friday.Thanks! 

Rock Star Words- Some children have brought home a sight word list. Please review your word list this week. When your child knows all words quickly. Please sign the sheet and return it to class. I will test your childs knowledge and send the next list home. Don't worry if your child does not have a word list yet. We are reviewing words daily in class and once your child consistently recognizes a few words in print, I will send a list home with them.

Math- One More Snowball Game-the sheet goes home Monday. Please play the game throughout the week. The children have had fun playing the game in class, as you can see from the pictures. Players roll the dice and cover a snowball that is one more than the number they rolled. ex.roll a 6 cover # 7.

Library- We visit the library on Thursday.Return your book so you can sign out a new one.Keep your book for the week and return it the following Thursday in the library bag.If you forget the  book, please send it in the next day and I will send home the new book.Happy Reading!
