Look at what we will be learning next week:

Math: We will review and assess numbers up to 120. We will also work on generating and solving word problems.

Science: We will be learning about the differences of day and night.

Language Arts:

Reading: Next week we will focus on self-monitoring and correcting our reading mistakes.

Writing: Next week we will start a new writing unit on Persuasive Writing.

Social Studies: : The learners will identify ways people exchange goods and services.

Fun activities to do at home:

Select one image and talk about the math you see.

Select an image and think about which one does not belong. Use math to describe why and how you know.

Select one image and think about how many you see. Use math to describe how many and how you know.

Practice counting to 120 by twos with your child.

READING - Enjoy some extra time reading on Bookflix, Epic, Learning A-Z, Book in a Bag, or check out some books from the TCE library. Our librarian hands out library books on Wednesdays.

Practice reading the snap words. Remember, your child should be able to read all of the snap words in a "snap".

Social Studies: We have started our unit on Economics in social studies. This is a great time for discussions with your children about earning money, spending money, and the differences between needs and wants.

Face to Face Learner Announcements

Please ask your child if they have working headphones. Many learners have broken their headphones or the headphones do not fit them correctly. We use these every day so it's good to invest in a good pair of headphones. If your child needs a new pair, please send them to school.

Please make sure you put your child's fully charged Ipad and charger in their backpack each day. The Ipad battery should be 100%.

We have library on Mondays. Please make sure to send your library books back to school on Monday so your child can check out some new books.

It is getting colder!! We will still go out for recess as long as the temperature/wind chill is above freezing. Please make sure your child has the appropriate gear and that it is labeled!

The teachers are bundled up for a chilly recess!
