Hello Parents
and Students,
I hope everyone
has a chance to look at his/her child’s agenda tonight re: up and coming trips and activities. Again, the Grant Road Office is highly
encouraging that parents use PARENT PORTAL to pay for children’s trips, fees,
activities, on-line.
Enjoy the
photos enclosed from last Friday’s CAREER DAY.
The kids had so much fun dressing up!
This week, we
created paragraphs in our journals re:
Circle of Courage Independence goal for Term III. For language arts we continue to read stories
about nutrition. We read “What Did
You Put In Your Pocket?” and created a tune, as we read it. The children created exact nouns,
interpreting the story in their own words.
On Wednesday we read, Split Pea Soup by James Marshall and did a
writing activity about likes and dislikes.
For Writing Traits, we focused on exact nouns (choosing the right word
for what you want to say).
Here are some links to explore with your child re: weather study. This is our NEW SCIENCE unit.
