Monday, Oct. 2, 2017

Highlights
We started reading our second Magic Tree House novel, “The Knight at Dawn.”  In Social Studies we looked at a map of our country and learned that Canada is divided into provinces and territories.  We also drew a picture of a magnetic field in Science.  Last Friday we learned about ordinal numbers (e.g., 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) in Math.  Tomorrow we will be going to the library.

*There is no school for students on Friday, Oct. 6 and Monday, Oct. 9.

Important Information
Save your receipts from Boston Pizza in Creekside, Country Hills, Beddington and Crowfoot!  Send the receipt to the school so the school we can receive 10% back.  Don’t forget to write your child’s name and teacher on the back of the receipt so your child is eligible for monthly draws for free kid’s meals.

Important Dates
Friday, Oct. 6- No school for students (Professional development day for teachers)
Monday, Oct. 9- No school- Thanksgiving
Tuesday, Oct. 10- Pumpkin and apple fundraiser orders due, Scholastic book orders due
Wed, Oct. 11- Grade 1 and 2 individual photos
Fri, Oct. 13- All class photos taken today

Homework
-Please sign the home reading log and make sure your child reads each night.  Nightly reading makes a HUGE difference!

-Please pick a few words off the spelling list given out at Meet the Teacher for your child to practice each night.

Ask me about:
What does magic “e” do in the following words?  Line, Make, Cute.  (It makes the vowel say its long sound)
