LITERACY:  We are working on strenghtening the beginning of our stories by looking at the 5'w.  Students are thinking about:   When, Who, Where, What and Why before they write the introduction of their stories.  Using the 5w's will help them have a great beginning to their stories. Spelling:  This week we are focusing on double consonant words: dd, ss, ff, ll.  MATH: For the month of December we will continue to review: numbers from 0-20, before and after number concepts and using the terms more and less than when describing numbers. SHOW AND TELL:  For this month, we will all share our show and tells on Thursday, December 22. CHRISTMAS CONCERT:  This year, the grade one classes have two songs to sing.  They are Away in a Manger  and O Christmas tree.  Please practice these songs at home.  The words to these songs are attached under the document folder.   Have a great week and remember boys and girls to do your best always!!
