Good afternoon, families!

As per the usual, our day was full. We listened to four students share about teachers, construction workers, lawyers, and firefighters. What a thrill! 

We continue to work with words and sentences. We had our first pre-test in Spelling. We will have the follow up test on Thursday. Tomorrow and Wednesday the students will have opportunity to work with these words - 

bad, bag, bat, bed, big, bit, box, bun, bus, but, bug bet; 

card, yard, hard, far, star, shark, part, smart, start, carpet, warm. 

I have two groups of students. Ask your child which ones they printed and review the spelling of them. 

I am also listening to three students each day read. I thoroughly enjoy listening to the stories and read the story at the end of the day to the whole class. 

In Writing, we listed fruits we enjoy eating. We had 24 fruits! 

In Math, we are at centres. There is no lack of learning in Grade One!

Please note that 9 students will be at the Cross Country Meet Wednesday afternoon. Please, if you have any games such as Snakes and Ladders, UNO, or Connect 4, can we borrow them? Six students will be in class. Thank you. 

Have a lovely evening. Don't forget to send in the School Photo order on Wednesday.
