Winter is finally here, I think...Although there is little snow outside, we've been learning about it in our classroom. Ask your child how many sides every snowflake has. This week the students completed lots of snowman activities. We have a snowman factory, played a game to draw snowmen. learned a poem about a chubby snowman which is in your child's yellow poetry notebook. Poetry NotebookEach Thursday this yellow duotang will come home with your child. We learn a new poem each week, please practice the poems with your child and return it each Monday. Letters and NumbersThis week we began by reviewing the letters, sounds and numbers that we learned before Christmas. We also practiced the letter /m/ and number 10. During journals, the students shared their favourite moment from winter break. It was wonderful to hear about all of the adventures you had. Ask your child what they drew in their journal. Snowman ProjectOn Wednesday your child brought home a snowman project. Please help your child make the snowman into Anything they want. This is for you to do together, not homework for parents :) so please have your child help. We read the book Snowballs to get inspiration, it is bellow.
