Happy Tuesday! We have been enjoying a great week so far. Our word of the week is "in" and our letter of the week is "n". Please continue to expose and point them out during your nightly reading. We have also been busy learning some songs for our Christmas concert. If your child would like to practise at home, you can find "This Little Light of Mine" on youtube. It is the version with the candle and black screen with white lyrics.
Here are some pictures for you to enjoy!
In Math, we have continued to sort different objects according to their size,shape, colour etc. We are also continuing to work on ten frames and recognizing numbers in a ten frame. The students finished our number posters for the class. They look amazing and are a great tool to help the kids when unsure of how to print a certain number. The kids really enjoy doing mental math (eg. If you have 2 toys and I give you one more or what number comes after 5). We will continue to work on these fun brain teasers! We are working at all different paces so we ask questions based on their knowledge and ability.
Last week was Bully Prevention Week and we spoke about feelings and how to treat others. We also spoke about what the true meaning of bullying is and what we should do if anyone is bullying us. We were very lucky to have a guest speaker in to talk about ways to stop a bully.
Reminders:
With the snow and the cold temperatures, please send you child with appropriate clothing. They are outside for 20 minutes two times a day. Please label all clothing (hats, gloves, boots, snowpants, jackets etc.). Also, please ensure that your child has extra socks and a spare set of clothing....snow = wet feet and wet pants!!!
Here are a few more pictures in the classroom.
