- Tomorrow is the Living Rosary Assembly hosted by the Grade 4 class. Each child is allowed to bring a Rosary or they may use a Rosary from our classroom.
- On Friday our Interim Reports are being sent home. These are a quick update on how your child is doing behaviorally and socially in the classroom. It is not an academic assessment.
- Picture orders are due this Friday.
- We are collecting the Fitness-a-thon monies, so please send them in as soon as possible. Thank you for all your hard work raising money! We really appreciate it.
- Just a heads up that on Friday, October 30th, we will be having our annual All Saints Dress Up Day. There are plenty of great and simple ideas found online!
Weekly Work:
- Grade one students are doing "og" words and Grade two students are doing "ug" words. Remember spelling homework is due on Friday.
- We practiced doing an Earthquake drill today in preparation for our school wide drill tomorrow. I always find that children are a little more anxious about Earthquakes after a drill, so it might be a topic of conversation tonight.
- We have been learning about the Rosary in Religion last week and this week, specifically reviewing the Joyful mysteries.
- In Math the Grade Ones have been working on how many more/less a number is than 5 or 10. You could help them at home by asking them how many more is 7 than 5, how many less is 4 than 5 etc. We did ordinal numbers today!
- The Grade 2 students have been working on the language of word problems and how it gives us hints of which operation we should do. We also worked on ordinal numbers today!
