Hope everyone enjoyed their snow day yesterday. Only 8 schools days remaining until Christmas break!
In French, we will begin filming our "Me Voici 2" video. Stay tuned. I hope to have the video up by Friday.
Our focus will be on the letter H this week. Their new sheet has been placed in their trousse de livre to practice at home. In terms of cursive writing, Hh has already been covered when we practiced "Ch" a few weeks ago.
Letters to Santa have also been drafted and revised. I will send them out after school today. I requested 1 class letter from Canada Post be sent to the school.
Guided reading continues as usual. Your son/daughter may have the same book to read at home depending on what was accomplished in our small groups. They can continue to masters their sounds, comprehension, fluidity, etc. Please ensure reading takes place each night for 10-15 minutes. If you require a new reading log sheet, please let me know. I can attach a new one to their existing copy.
Math is coming along. My goal is to complete our pattern unit before break. With that being said, we may have an in-class quiz on the 21st. I also started a new mental math duo-tang with the class. After X-Mas, we will ahve a series of activites to accomplish in order to prepare ourselves for the grade 3 provincial exam.
Aside from that, tomorrow we will be decorating a class X-Mas tree I cut over the weekend. Our classroom door will be decorated Thursday. Judges will be coming around on Friday to judge all doors. Fingers crossed we can win a pizza party this time around :P
Notes:
Wednesday - popcorn day
Thursday - library
Friday - Christmas meal will only be the only one served that day in the cafeteria.
X-Mas concert next Wednesday (19th) Storm date is Thursday the 20th.
Cheers!
