May 30th Edition of
The K/1 Class News
Hi everyone, here is our last newsletter of May, the countdown is on! We are all ready for the weather to warm up a bit!
We started out the week with a performance from the band class. What a great demonstration of hard work and musical talent!
A big highlight of the week was the butterfly release. Most of our butterflies hatched and were release on Tuesday. What a magical experience! We loved watching them fly off or rest on the flowers outside.
We continue to work on our seasonal tradition pieces and the class LOVED trying out their own “offices” aka privacy dividers they can set up so they can focus.
We have now started learning about financial literacy in math, always a fun topic!
Our first 'Kids in the Know' lesson went really well and you will notice home activities that will help you continue this important conversation at home.
We ended the week with a fun Reader’s Theatre presentation by the grades 2/3 class. Very good!
We are organizing a Fun Day (afternoon) on June 11th. This is always a highlight! It’s kind of like a field day with fun stations and activities. I will be running a face painting station and could use a little help. You don’t have to be super artistic; we will just do simple designs. Is anyone able to volunteer that afternoon from 1pm-3pm? Please let me know.
I will be conducting a reading assessment on Monday morning so it would be great to have everyone in attendance. I know there has been extra sickness going around so hopefully a weekend of rest does the trick.
Please return all library books, inventory will start soon.
