The words of the week this week are: on, mon, bon, de, des, est, ici, il y a, un, une
For Literacy we are working on the diagrams ai, ei, and er. We will also be practicing writing sentences with nouns and verbs (with a review on what a noun and a verb are). We also have a book that we will be reading about the new year that the students will be bringing home for practice on Tuesday.
Our theme for the next week will be continuing on what we started in December on qualities of a good friend.
In Math, we are continuing on the skill of representing relationships of numbers up to 100, with a focus on addition and subtraction strategies and fractions. We will be working on the bridging through 10 strategy for mental math, building numbers with Cuisenaire rods and colouring in fractions.
During explore time this week, we will be working on setting up our classroom garden! Hopefully we will be able to start some seeds by the end of the week.
Just a reminder to make sure that students are dressed to go outside for recess. We will try to spend some time outside for outdoor learning as well on days that are not too cold with the wind chill.
