Students may return their home reading chart for October and I will send home a new chart for November this week. I have been assessing the students reading, as they complete 5 reads of their leveled reading book. I am amazed at the progress that is happening. Many students have been bumped up a level of reading and I am pleased to see that they are working hard at reading. Keep up the good work!
Here are the new phonograms we will be learning this week: igh, ie, dge, wr. (pg. 13 of booklet) I assessed the student’s recall of the 29 multi-letter phonograms (pg 1-12 of the booklet) and I was so pleased that many of the students were able to recite most of the multi-letters we have learned so far. Thank you for your home support. This week I will be sending home the results of the testing for your information.

Thank you for your best wishes for my birthday! It was a long count for the kids to get to my birthday age, but we counted by 10’s and it went a lot faster. A good math lesson on a birthday!
I will introduce the words today (Mon. Oct. 26) and test on Friday, Oct. 31. Gr 2: thing, roll, stone, foot, dance, lift, page, after, show, thank, what, spring, summer, fall, winter Gr 1: run, ran, go, do , did, tan, can, so, no, pet
Just to remind you that due to our short week we have a short spelling list which I will be testing students on tomorrow. (Pro-D-Day Friday, no school) 10 words for Gr 2 and 5 words or Gr 1. Students are doing so well, I am amazed!
On Oct. 28, one of our fabulous local business’, Fraser Valley Roofing, has graciously agreed to sponsor a Hot Dog Day for our students. At lunch time, the food truck will be here to hand out hot dogs to our entire school! Each child will receive one hot dog and 1 bag of chips free of charge. Students do not need to sign up or send anything to receive the hot dog or chips. If students do not wish to have get a hot dog, they should bring their regular lunch and let their teacher know that they will not be having a hot dog on the day of the event. This should be a fun day as it is also Fall Colour Dress-up Day for our students!
Thanks to Fraser Valley Roofing for putting on this event for our school!
A teacher directed step by step draw. Awesome drawings!
I am sending you a video of all the phonogram sounds (singles and multi-letter) for your reference as you help review phonograms at home. Please keep this link handy, because you may need to refer to it as we continue on in learning more of the multi-letter phonograms. All students should know the single letter phonogram sounds at this point, and the multi-letter phonograms that I have indicated in the previous post.
