Update from Ms. R

The homework for this week is to complete the “All About Me” language worksheet. The children are also to practise each day, skip counting orally by 1’s, 2’s, 5’s, 10’s and 25’s. A 100 chart was sent home with your child to help with this practice. (We timed the class doing this skip counting practice together and it takes only 2 minutes!) Skip counting is a strategy that helps your child count faster. Please keep this 100 chart at home for your child to reference in the future. The completed “All About Me” worksheet is due on Friday, September 21st. (We will be compiling these sheets into a binder to create a class book, for all the children to read about their fellow students.)


REMINDER…In our program, there is DAILY and WEEKLY homework. DAILY homework is to study our weekly Word Wall Words (spelling), each day, in preparation for the test each Friday. Each Monday, your child writes the assigned words into his/her agenda. Your child must also read for 20 minutes (or more) every day. WEEKLY homework is made up of a language activity and a math activity and is assigned each Friday. The weekly homework is due to be handed in on the following Friday.


NOTE TO PARENTS - PLEASE READ


Due to circumstances beyond our control, the planned reorganization of the English primary classes has been postponed until next week. We are hoping to have the reorganization done by Wednesday, September 20th. Because of this reorganization, some students will be leaving Room 204 and going to another classroom. Parents of the children who will be leaving our class, will be phoned by either Mrs. Farrelly (principal) or Ms. Robertson (vice-principal) by September 20th. If you have any questions about this, please contact me or the school office.
