Hello, a bit of a wet weekend but, nice and mild today, so hopefully you were able to get out and enjoy it.Please continue to encourage your little ones with getting dressed for outdoors. The more independent and quicker they are, the more time they have outside to play especially, during our recess which is only 15 minutes long. I have seen an improvement and the children are very proud when they can get ready on their own. Of course, we always lend a hand with those tricky zippers and tucking in mittens. We are expecting some snow this week,so please dress warmly and pack extra mittens and socks. 

Homework-Math, please complete the numeral trace and make sheet. Trace the numeral with your pencil and then make the numerals. We still  need some practice with forming our numerals properly. You can also play Snowy Bump, again this week. In literacy, try the January letter name challenge. Time yourself to see how many letter names you can say quickly in 1 minute. Colour the happy face each time you try the challenge. Then try to identify the letter sounds quickly. Can you get to the end of the sheet in 1 minute? Circle any letter you may not recognize. Practice the "at" word family activity. Add the letters m and s to the word at to make new words mat and sat. Can you make any more "at" words? Print them on the back of your sheet. Read the sentence I sit. Learn the heart word "and".  Continue to review your sight words this week. When you know the words quickly and don't mix them up, please sign the form and return to class. I will check your childs knowledge and if they are ready for the next list, I will send it home. 

Water Bottles- Please remember to bring a water bottle daily.

Phys. Ed. Classes- Our phys.ed. classes are every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.Please dress in comfy clothes and sneakers to run, exercise and play.Our extra phys.ed class on Wednesday afternoon is an outdoor class, so please dress for the weather. 

Skating on the outdoor rink- For our Wednesday outdoor gym class on Jan.22nd, we are planning to go skating on the schools outdoor rink, weather permitting. Please send your childs skates and helmet to school. If your child needs skates and \or a helmet please let me know by Tuesday so I will have time to find them a pair that fit. We will be monitoring the rinks ice surface and will let you know if the skating is cancelled due to poor ice or weather. Thanks.

Cafeteria- Daily lunch orders can be done online. Please send me a note in the agenda if your child is purchasing lunch or any item from the cafeteria. Please send a note with your childs name,indicating exactly what they are ordering, in a baggie with the money. Thanks for your support!
