Home Learning Nov 8th

Bon matin mes amis! I hope you all had a restful weekend. It's beginning to look a little frosty in the mornings.. brrr...

Here is some home learning activities your kiddos can do today. Many activities will be centered towards Remembrance Day this week. I will be putting new packets together at school for parents to pick up with printables for some of these activities. I will also attach them in "files" on our fb group incase you would rather print them at home. 

I understand this can be a stressful time for families and I want you to know that I am here to support you however I can. 

Video: Watch this Remembrance Day video and draw a picture of what Remembrance Day means to you on the paper attached or paper from home. 

Reading: Read for 10-15 minutes, either a book in their homework bag or log in to Boukili and read 1-2 books. 

Sound of the week: Listen to the sound of the week "OU". I will be posting the sound cards as well on our fb group. Song below. Action is to cup your hand around your mouth when you say OU.

Sight Words: mes, les, aujourd'hui, joue, maison - print these on paper and stick each word to a wall and use a flashlight to play spotlight and try to say the word the flashlight shines on. Works best with the lights off! :) 
 
Gym: Do an hour of physical activity! Play tag, go on a nature walk or collect some colorful fall leaves to create a collage! :) 

Math: 20 minutes for each task.

Complete one assignment on Zorbit Math in the bookbag.
Complete this week's task card: Using cereal pieces, Lego, toys, or shoes and try to make 10 at least 3 different ways. (Ex: 4+6)
Make your own color pattern on each row of poppies

 
Students can also continue drawing a picture of each of their family members including their pets on small pieces of paper. This will be used when we get back to class for our project on Family. I will be putting the cards in the new packets as well. 

*I will let you know when you can pick up the packets at the school if you are able to. 

A reminder that I've attached the Virtual home learning file to help you plan out your day with your child. 

Have a wonderful Monday! 

Mme Hitchman :)

Nov 3- Home learning

Happy Wednesday! Today is all about being active and mindfulness!

Literacy:

Reading: Read for 10-15 minutes outside (weather permitting) Try to recreate part of the book outside by drawing in the sand, or building something from the book with sticks and rocks.

Word Work: I have attached a book under "files" called "Qui est dans ma famille" on our group page. Students are to put the sentences in order by reading the sentence on the page next to it. If you do not have a printer, students can write the words down or build each sentence with magnetic letters. This reinforces beginning with a capital and ending with a period.

Math:

Follow instructions on attached photo for the "rock and roll" math activity outside! Have fun building and skip counting!

Gym: Try one of the brain breaks or yoga videos posted in the links:

Mini yoga: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3maMrGyInc

I hope you all have a great mindful Wednesday!
