The schedule of events will be emailed to you. A sign up sheet to read in the classroom is posted outside our classroom door. I have slotted reading times for 9:00am and 2:45pm so that you can read first thing when you drop your child off, or at the end of the day before pick up. You can bring any book that you'd love to share with the class. If you have any 'celebrity' connections in the city we would love to have them in as a guest reader as well.
Students will also have the opportunity to read to the class. Many students have already been asking to read to their peers. It's so exciting to see them building the confidence to read in front of the class.
This week:
Monday: Star Student: Adam
Tuesday: Spelling Test
Wednesday: Chapel
Thursday:
Friday:
Science: We have been studying Objects and Materials. We are ready to begin building functional objects for our final project. If you are able, please send in a variety of recyclable materials that we can use for this project.
Here's a picture of students taking note of the various materials used to create the same object, with the same function.
Reading Incentive
We did it! We "Read up a Storm" to create a Winnipeg White Out. The reward: hot chocolate and some free time.
February's reading incentive will be to fill in the box of chocolates on the same wall. Each day you read gets you a chocolate.
Valentine's Day Party
On Valentine's Day we will have a party to exchange Valentine cards at. I ask that students who choose to participate bring Valentine's for everyone in the class. I will prepare a list of names for your child to use. If you would like to send a nut free, commercially prepared snack for the party please feel free. It is really important that the items have a label with the ingredient list. We have several nut allergies in our classroom. I would also really appreciate if someone could send in juice boxes. Thank you!
