Newsletter #24

 March 14th Edition of

The K/1 Class News


Hello Everyone, here is the last newsletter before the break.

 

We all had a fun week and have been enjoying the warmer weather and spring blooms. Inside shoes and extra rain gear was sent home to test for size. Please return after the break! Report cards went home on Thursday. If your child was away, you can get yours after the break. 

 

We continue to work on isolating the sounds we hear in words. A good skill to use when sounding out words while reading or writing. 

 

Tuesday was a very exciting day! It was the 100th day of school (!!). We explored the number 100 throughout the day and had a lot of fun! The vests all looked great (thanks!) and the whole school appreciated our very cute parade. We celebrated with a popcorn party. 

 

We have been learning new math games with Ms. Amber each week and exploring math talks where the kids have an opportunity to discuss their thinking. 


We have started our school garden! Our class planted peas on Thursday. The kids loved taking part in this activity and look forward to harvest time. If you would like to help out with the garden, we are always needing parent volunteers! 

 

We will be on the letter ‘W’ for Show and Tell when we return after the break.

 

Important Dates to Remember:

April 2 Back to school

April 3 Clay workshop (Pottery)

April 5 School in session

April 25 Spring Showcase! Mrs. Cheryl’s last day

 

I hope you all have an enjoyable Spring Break, whatever it is you get up to. 

 

Warmly,

Ara Van Riel
