***We have had a few incidents of students being hurt outside during recess and lunch recess as a result of rough play. Please remind your children that they are not to be making any physical contact with other students while on school property. As a class, we discussed this as well, and talked about things we can do, such as being aware of our surroundings, keeping our hands to ourselves, and using equipment - especially on the playground - appropriately to help keep everyone safe during times of play.
The students have been doing amazing work in their visual journals. Today, we organized our symbols and emblems of Alberta page and learned how to do different kinds of lettering for out title. We also began a background page for our About Me poems, using watercolor paints.
In math, we are continuing with place value and expanded notation. After lunch, we spent some quiet time reading our new books and got to discuss the important information, such as who, did what, when and where as a review. This week in writing, we are focusing on short and long a sounds, including vowel diagraphs (ai, ay, ey, eigh). We are also reviewing how to edit our work from a checklist.

We can't wait to share pictures with you! Coming soon!
