Hello families!

Just a friendly reminder that your child should have all their winter clothing everyday at school. This is important, especially as it starts to warm up (but is still quite cold), as we go outside twice a day. 



Today we learned about an "r-controlled vowel". This is when the "r" makes it hard to hear what the vowel is saying!


We read the book "Yetis are the Worst!" It was a fun book! We started brainstorming adjectives (which are describing words) for yetis! Some of the words we came up with were:

Yetis are..
Friendly
Sneaky
Stealthy
Fun
Furry
Coldproof


We continued reading Charlotte's Web! Today, Wilbur was lonely because it was a rainy day on the farm. It affected his all his plans for the day!


We started learning about measurement in math today. We focused on how we can compare lengths!


IMPORTANT UPCOMING DATES

January 25 – Subway Fun Lunch Day (orders due by January 20 through healthyhunger.ca)

January 30 – Online Report Cards available through your MyCBE parent account

January 31 – 6:00 – School Council Meeting at NLS

February 1 – Winter Walk Day

Thursday, June 27th  is our school-wide PLAY DAY and EARLY DISMISSAL! As we will be outside, students should dress for the weather, bring a water bottle, and come with sunscreen already applied (teachers cannot help with this task). We will be celebrating Play Day by having Freezies! If you do not want your child to have a school-provided Freezie on this day, please email me as soon as possible and send an alternative treat to school for your child to enjoy. We will be finished school this day at 1:05 p.m. as it is an early dismissal day! Our theme for Play Day this year is... Dress like a SUPERHERO!

 Our learning in English Language Arts & Literature: We learned how to read words with the suffix -le this week! These are words like turtle, humble, and apple! We continued researching rabbits. This week we focused on the rabbit's habitat and predators, and sketched the parts of a rabbit with labels! Our learning in Math: We started learning about subtraction this week! We learned about how to put the bigger number first and how to use different strategies to help us solve the questions. Our learning in Science: We started learning about the needs of plants and animals this week!  We focused on what are living things and non-living things are and how to sort them. This started some really interesting conversations! We began germinating pea seeds to see how they grow. We looked at the parts of a sunflower, labelled important parts of the plant, and learned why these parts are important! We went outside with magnifying glasses to explore nature! Our learning in Social Studi...
