S is for Skeleton!


Hello parents!
This week, we spent time learning about the letter /S/. It was very exciting to see how much all the children are having fun reading words and blending the sounds. What a magical moment! We are very proud of the students for trying their very best.

We had our first spelling test of the year today! (Only for Rm.6 & 7)
If the student missed a word or more, they will get the test back to study for tomorrow. The result of the test will be indicated on the weekly STAR report on Friday.

On Halloween, we'll have our schools' annual "Parade of Masks". Please have your child bring their costumes in a bag to school. We will have time to change before the event begins.

Next week, we will learn the letter /L/. Please continue to work with your child at home, reviewing all the sounds we have learned so far.



This week in mixing...
  • In Florita's class, we are working on beginning addition. We are continuing with making patterns. We are now writing numbers from 1 to 50. Please make sure that the students write all the numbers in the correct way. We are continuing with graphing as well. We'll be sending the second home links next week. Please continue to have the accountable talk about math, (talking about numbers the children see all over the place)
  • In Fanahi's class, we are continuing with the letter /S/ and journal writing. Please talk with your children about writing in sequence. They will soon write in journals in sequence using words such as First, Then, Next and Last.
  • In Maria's class, we are finishing up parts of the pumpkin. We'll introduce thanksgiving unit soon!


Thank you for your support always.

Warmly,
Florita. Fanahi and Maria :)
