Learning is Fun!

Take a look at some of the fun learning happening in our room! A student decided to practice his letter sounds during Free Exploration time, another is practising his building skills, while the third searched around the room for words he could read and then try to spell. Can you figure out what he was trying to write? 



Poem for week of September 14th.

This week we talked a lot about what we need to do in order to be good listeners. We learned to listen and focus with our whole body.

September Calendar

Poem Week of September 7th

Friday Folders and Poetry Books


Every Friday we will be sending home GREEN FRIDAY FOLDERS




and YELLOW POETRY BOOKS.




The Friday Folders will contain any important notes and school information for parents.  We will also be using it to send home student work from throughout the week.  Please empty the Friday Folder and return it to school every Monday.  If you ever need to send a note to school for teachers please be sure to put them into these green folders.

Our class will be learning a new poem every week and this poem will be sent home in their Poetry Books.  Please read over these poems with your child and help them with the little "homework" activities for that poem.  DO NOT do the work for your child!  Sit with them, help them and do it together, but do not do it for them.  These are just meant to be short, fun activities for your child to complete over the weekend to give them a sense of accomplishment and pride in their work.

We also have some technology in our room, including computers for student use and a Smartboard.
