Posted: January 19, 2016

Hi Everyone!

I hope you had a fun weekend and were able to get outside to play. There is lots of snow on the playground and we have been having some colder temperatures, so please make sure that you are dressed for the weather.

Phys. Ed - Our Phys. Ed days this week are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Library - Our library day is on Friday. Please make sure you bring your book back so you can get out another one.

Scholastic Book Orders - If you would like to order a book from the January Book Club, please have your orders in by Thursday January 21st.

Homework - Our spelling words this week focus on the /oo/ /ou/ /o/ vowel sounds that say /u/ and the long /i/ vowel sounds that have a /y/ as the vowel. We are working on using voice in our writing so the writing activity involves using voice to let your reader know how you feel about the topic. In Math we are working on word problems and fact families. Please make sure that you are reading each night and record your book on the log sheet.

Math - We are working on a unit of Addition and Subtraction to 18. Please work on the facts and strategies sheet that we sent home. These will help with adding and subtracting quickly. This week we will be focussing on fact families and equal and unequal.

Skating - Our next skating day is on Thursday January 28th. Ice time is 9:45 - 10:25AM. Make sure you have your skates and helmets. Parents and grandparents are welcome to join us.

Have a fantastic week!
