2nd Week!

“Autumn...the year's last, loveliest smile.”
― William Cullen Bryant

So we are beginning our second week!  Some things to look for this week.

Grade One:

We are learning color words and some common sight words.  Last week we learned 'red, I, a'.  This week we will learn 'yellow, blue, green, the, see, to, it, in, is, you, and, that."  Of course, we will be practicing these words for a while.
Please do Homework:  reading the  color books as they come home.  Next week I will be sending 'apple' words to begin practicing.

Also, look for Book Bags this week.  They are a very simple book to read with your child and a fun activity to do.

Grade Two:

As the experienced students, grade two's have the responsibility of the classroom job chart.  They are doing Grade One review at this time but quickly moving into grade 2 phonics skills, reading and writing expectations.  We will begin Spelling next week.  Those grade 2's who did not finish all the sight words last year will be receiving review sheets and sight words again.

The grade two's have done an excellent job of modeling good listening skills for the grade one's.  I appreciate their patience!

Everyone:

School fees are due:  $15.00 which includes $5.00 agenda fee and $10.00 SRC fee.
Mr. Feil sent home a PE letter outlining his expectations.  Please return the signed paper to show that you read and understand the information.

Microwave:  keep microwave food to a minimum this year.  With 23 students, there is not time to heat up food and eat it in the time given.

Concession:  YOU MUST WRITE IN THE AGENDA IF YOUR CHILD IS GOING TO CONCESSION!  Otherwise, he or she will not be sent.  Also, keep concession going to a minimum.  It takes a long time for them to go and get food which leaves them with little time to eat it.  The school concession is mainly intended for the older students.

If you have any questions, please note in agenda or send me an email.  The blog can now be accessed through Classes on the School Home page.
