Math- This week play the dice game Christmas tree, Roll and colour dice game,1 less. Players roll the dice and colour the number that is one less than the number they rolled.Ex. roll 4 colour 3. Note how quickly your child says the number, or do they have to count from 1 to figure it out. Each player picks one colour and uses this for the game.Once all the numbers are coloured, each player counts how many they coloured, the one with the most,wins.Have fun!

Anyone who goes on the ice must wear skates, no boots are allowed, which is the directive of the City of Miramichi's public skating rules. Please read the rules that are found attached to this note. A copy will also be sent home. If your child does not have skates, please contact me at school and I can check our selection we have at school, to see if their is a pair to fit them. Everyone is welcome to join us at the rink, to help tie skates or go skating with your little one.
