Few notes:
French - Books have begun to make their way home. Typically students regress by 1-2 levels over summer. Please keep in mind however that your child(dren) has missed 6 months of instruction due to Covid. We have created reading groups in class and practice daily. Books will make their way home every 2 or 3rd day, so please continue to re-read if need be nightly. There are always new words to rehease, master, etc.
We continue with our Halloween theme. Students are learning new vocabulary daily and completing many fun activities.
Math - We continue to work with Patterns and have incorporated counting by 2, 5, 10, etc. within the mix. Mathletics on the school iPads has also been a hit with students and is proving beneficial.
Let's have a great week. If you have any questions and/or concerns, please send me a note or e-mail. Cheers :)

Parents,
I will be sending home an information sheet with French learning activities incase we happen to temporarily end up being sent home due to Covid-19. It is important to be prepared, and I hope this plan will not have to be set in motion. My teacher page will be an invaluable resource as well during this time if this were to occur.
If you have any questions and/or concerns, please feel free to contact me or our administration for assisatnce. Ca va bien aller :)

French - Books will be sent home Wednesday and Thursday in your child(ren) green reading bag. I am also in the process of creating 2 new classes for online learning. 1 is entitled "Lalilo" and the other "Boom Learning." We will practice this week how to log in to these sites in case we are sent home and require home learning. If we have time during our week, student's will be given the opportunity to practice furthur.
Our new theme will be all about Halloween. Students will learn new vocabulary and complete themed related activities.
Math -This week we will continue to focus on how to represent numbers in various ways i.e. picture, table, etc. If the weather permits again, we will be going outside to create more patterns on our walking trail to share with the class. Next week, we will wrap up this unit with a small class quiz and dig deeper into our Pattern's unit.
Side note: Mr. Ryan has created a Gretna Green Elementary Sports page on Facebook. Please feel free to join :)

Please send me a note and/or e-mail if your child is to stay after school. Your child(ren) will be sent on the bus if we do not receive notice. If it is for track and field for instance, once note will suffice for the season. Thank you.
