Posted: May 15, 2023

Hi Everyone!

  • Welcome Back!!
  • I  hope you had a good weekend!

Phys. Ed

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

Library

  • Our library day is on Tuesday.
  • Make sure you bring your book back so you can sign out another one.

Homework/Reading

  • The homework for the week is listed in the orange homework books.
  • Spelling words for the week focus on /ed/ endings. When we add /ed/ to a word, we drop the /e/ and add /ed/.
  • We will be working on them at school and sending them home to work on for homework.
  • We will do a test on the words on Friday.
  • Please continue with our sight word sheets. Remember to have the Homework Helper sign the list when you know all the words.
  • The word work activity focuses on our spelling words. Circle the word missing from each sentence. Read the sentence with the word in it. Does it make sense and sound right? Match the word with the correct /ed/ ending. Pick 2 words ending in /ed/ and write a sentence for each one. Make sure to add good details and begin and end your sentence the right way.
  • In Math we are working on adding 2-digit numbers. The students have been using strategies that work best for them to help them add. Remember to show your work. How did you get the answer?
  • Choose one book from the reading bag to read each night. Use your strategies to help with the reading and record your book on the log sheet.

Victoria Day – No School

  • Just a reminder that there is no school on Monday May 22nd for the Victoria Day holiday.
  • Enjoy your long weekend!

Jump Rope For Heart

  • If you would like your child to participate in this event, sign the orange permission slip that went home and return it to school.
  • We will send the fundraising information and envelope back to you.
  • Pledges and money are due back on Monday May 29th.
  • Jump Day will be on Friday June 2nd.
