Hello families and friends,
Today we started by going to the Learning Commons. Please help your child to remember to bring these books back every 2 weeks. Then we went to the gym for some more caroling. After that we continued working on our animal riddles. I have black skin and clear fur, I'm the largest predator on land, my paws are as big as dinner plates, and one of my favourite foods is a seal. Who am I? Post your answer in the comments below. In the afternoon we worked on our Read to Someone and Read to Self skills. We also practiced "sitting like a frog", an breathing and patience-building exercise. After that we did our mental math warmup and played some new math games working on our adding, subtracting, making 10, and doubles. We ended the day practicing some scooter, throwing, and catching skills in gym, and doing some winter colouring.
This Friday is Pyjama Day, and our last day for this round of Friday Clubs. The students will be starting in a new club in January. Friday is also the last day of classes before the break.
Have a great evening,
Mr. Soulliere

Hello families and friends,
Today we started our day with writing about our weekend. Then we went to the gym and joined the school for some caroling! After that we practiced our Read to Self and Read to Someone skills. Then we finished our morning with a winter wordsearch. In the afternoon we started with our mental math and then looked at representing our work for subtraction problems. Then we did a guided drawing of a gingerbread man. In gym we worked on our scooter skills.
This Wednesday is Fun Lunch. This Friday is Pyjama Day, and also Friday Club Day.
As the weather is getting a bit warmer, the students will likely be going outside each day for recess. Please ensure that your child is dressed appropriately for the weather with a warm jacket, boots, mitts, and a hat.
This week is our last week of school before the winter break. School will resume on Monday, January 3rd.
Have a great afternoon,
Mr. Soullier

Hello families and friends,
Today we started our day with our words of the week. They are "migrate", "today", "adapt", "holiday", and "hibernate" for all students. Then we continued work on our descriptive writing skills. We each picked a wild animal that is native to this area and that sticks around during the winter. Then we made a web of words and ideas to describe our animal. After that we practiced our Read to Self and Read to Someone skills. In the afternoon we worked on our representing skills in math, watched the p.m. kindergarten classes' dress rehearsal for their Christmas concert, and practiced our Christmas concert.
Tomorrow, we will be having our dress rehearsal and evening performance for our Christmas concert. The afternoon performance is at 1:00 p.m.; parents are welcome to come and watch (no tickets required). The evening performance is at 6:00 p.m.; students are asked to be at their classrooms for 5:45. There is no specific dress code, but please dress nicely for the concert. Don't forget to bring a canned food item or toy for admission!
