Birthday Wishes:  Thank you for all the birthday wishes and gifts I received on my birthday. I was very blessed and thankful!

Rainy Weather:  Fall weather has begun!  It is so important for children to get outside for a body break and run around, use big body movements and be loud. There is rain in the forecast and we do play outside in light rain. Please help your child be prepared for rainy weather.  A rain jacket and rain boots, extra socks and maybe even an umbrella.  Thank you for your consideration as we plug through the rainy days ahead!

Phonograms:  This week we add or (as in “for”, ew  (as in grew, and as in new), ui  (as in suit) . Please refer to the home booklet to review with your child.  All these phonograms make particular sounds that equip students as they begin to read.  Again, thank you for your home support!

Word Detective:  On Monday I will send home inside the planner a reading guide for you and your child as you read at home.  When you come to a word that you can’t figure out—-we have some reading strategies for the reader.  This week we will talk about the first strategy which is Eagle Eye.  We will use this as we practise in class reading.  Please refer to the chart as a guide to your child’s home reading.

Spelling:   I’m so proud of how well the students are learning their Spelling words.  This is our last week of 5 Spelling words. (next we begin with 8 words)  Here are the words that I will introduce on Monday, Oct.31 (word work throughout the week) and testing will be Friday, Nov. 4)  Please review at home.  the, can, to, he, if 

Home Reading:  Make sure you are reading and returning your book as regularly as possible!

Playtime:  In between learning, we take some time to just enjoy each other and play.  Below are some pictures.

Bible verse:  Testing is happening on Monday, Oct 31.  Hope with all our class practise your child will know Psalm 23: 1-4

Parent/Teacher Conferences:

It’s time for Parent/Teacher Interviews! I have had time to get to know the students in the classroom and do some assessments, review and teaching. I am looking forward to sharing with you about the strengths and challenges of your student. I understand that November 16th may not work for each family, but I would like to meet with each of you! If this date does not work for you, feel free to email me and we can work out another time. Please click on the link below to sign up for an interview time.
