Hello families and friends,

This morning we did some Read to Someone and Read to Self for 15 minutes each.  Then we had gym.  We did some Drum Fit but we worked on some things like tapping the stand and to the side and on top with the drum sticks.  Then we went to music and we were learning the names of the reindeer.  They are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolph.  Then we did some word work.  Our words of the week are "up", "are", "at" and "we" for grade ones and "her", "him", "them", and "with" for grade twos.

This afternoon we did some writing about our weekends.  Then we learned how to make finger spaces and continued practicing our sticky letters.  Then we finished up our writing and had an opportunity to share it.  At the end of the day we did some science.  Ask your child what they learned about.

Next Wednesday, November 26th, is Fun Lunch.

Next Tuesday, November 25th, is our Science Centre field trip.  Please return your child's permission forms as soon as possible.

Write a sentence in the comments that uses as many of the 8 words of the week as you can.

Have a great afternoon,
Room 74 and Mr. Soulliere
