French
- Our focus is the sound eau which makes the long o sound in nose.
- We are reading and writing holiday and winter vocabulary.
Math
- We continue to add and subtract, and to work with tens and ones.
- We are building 3D shapes.
Bake sale
- This Wednesday, there will be a bake sale during snack. Items cost 1$. They will also visit on Thursday and Friday, should your child be absent or forgot and wish to participate.
Outerwear
- LABEL YOUR CHILD’S OUTERWEAR! Many items are found in the hallway- extra clothes, boots, coats, hoodies, gloves, tuques… and if this items are labelled, it gives us a chance to find the owner before items are sent to the lost and found. The custodian removes any items left on the ground daily. Also remind your child to wear winter boots home at the end of each school day.
- Hooks: with snow on the horizon, and many children coming to school with snow pants, I request that you send your child to school with a labelled over the door hook or large command hook so that snow pants can hang on the outside of the locker. A hook that fits tightly is ideal, as loose metal hooks can fall and hurt children. A hook with 2 hooks at most- a hook with 3 hooks is too big for our lockers.
January
- After the break, we will be ice skating. You may wish to have your child try on old skates at home to see if they fit, or organize borrowing some skates ahead of time. LGES has some skates, but they are not in the best condition. If you would like to borrow them, you can arrange a time to see me before/after school, and I can take you to the skate room to try skates on. We will wait until closer to the date.
- We will be using chromebooks after the winter break. I will be asking children to bring in their own headphones. They need to have a built-in microphone, and a narrow prong to go through iPad cases in case we use those as well. Your child can bring them back home in June. If your child doesn’t own any, there’s a holiday gift idea!
Concert
- A reminder that our concert will be on Tuesday, Dec.19th. The office has sent out emails regarding tickets.
