Happy Family Night!


Hello Families!

I hope you will be able to make it to our Family night on Wednesday March 21st!  The book fair will be open and there will be lots of fun things happening on campus.  In our room, we will sing some of our favourite songs for you at 5pm.  Looking forward to seeing you there!

We have been looking at our inventive spelling lately and noticing words we often aren't sure of how to spell.  I have been keeping a list of words to watch so that the students can incorporate the correct spelling into their writing practice.  Here are some recent words:

they, some, when , wonder, many, saw, because

Part of learning is to be aware of what you are still working on and to give yourself goals. We have seen this will spelling, but also with personal behavior.  This week's personal goals had some similar themes.  Three were listening to others or instructions, chosing wisely when sitting at work time or meeting time and speaking up instead of joining silly or uncomfortable behavior.  These are tricky skills to have solid!  The kids are getting into the practice of sharing tips that help so that everyone can learn from each other's discoveries.

Here are a few of the first setting illustrations.  More to come!
