Update from Ms. R


The homework for this week is to complete the reflection sheet about our trip to the Toronto Public Library to attend the workshop with the artist Ashley Barron. Your child also has a small ziplock bag containing the “make 10” and “doubles” math facts. Please help your child practice these facts at home. Try mixing it up as well…for example, instead of 3+7=?, try 3+?=10. A few minutes a day, helps to improve your child’s math fluency! The homework is due on Friday, October 13, 2017.


NOTE TO PARENTS 


1. Thank you to all the parents for coming by our classroom on Curriculum night on Tuesday! It was a pleasure to see everyone and to explain the grade 2 program. If you have any questions, or if you ever wish to meet with me, please send me an email and I’ll be happy to help.


2. Due to the addition of two new classrooms to our school, our schedule has changed. Please note that your child has gym first period 4 out of 5 days a week. So, I do not receive your child in the morning, Ms. Francesca does, on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 and Day 4. Due to this change, it is very important that your child arrives to school on time, so he/she can safely move with the whole class to the gym where attendance will be taken.
