Weekly Updates

June 14th - 18th

*We will be having our PJ Walk for Love on Monday! Thank you for supporting our class in this! The kids were excited and eager to participate and help out other children and their families! Our fundraising page will be active until June 25th. http://support.rmhatlantic.ca/site/TR/Events/General?team_id=1526&pg=team&fr_id=1109

*The time is winding down and we are working on a review of concepts covered this year while incorporating some fun for all of their hard work and perseverance this year!

*A reminder that it is getting warmer out so feel free to send unscented sunscreen with them or to apply it in the mornings. :)

*There will be a notice going home on Monday of this week outlining our activities for the last week of school. Some have changed as we are extremely fortunate to be able to take our cohort on their first field trip this year to Oliver Farm! There will be information and permission form for this going home on Monday as well.

*The permission form for our trip to Oliver form and a letter outlining it will be going home on Monday. The cost is $5.00 per child. I would love to have the permission forms and money by Wednesday if possible. If this isn't feasible please let me know!

*We will continue with the homework bingo this week! I hope that they are enjoying it!

Have a great week!

• One of the activities that I have planned for our class this month is the Ronald MacDonald House PJ Walk for Love.

From Sunday, June 13th to Friday, June 18th, we will be participating in the PJ Walk for Kids in support of Ronald McDonald House Charities® Atlantic and the more than 2,200 Maritime families who they serve each year.

I have signed our class up and we have a page on the website where you can make a donation to the charity. The link to our fundraising page is here: http://support.rmhatlantic.ca/site/TR/Events/General?team_id=1526&pg=team&fr_id=1109

On Tuesday, June 15th we will have a PJ Day and do the walk. We will walk from the school on the trail to town hall and back! If the weather is not looking great for that day we will move it to another day that week, but I will let you know ahead of time!

Thank you so much for the donations thus far! Our page will be open for donations until June 25th! Feel free to share it with family members and friends as well. :)

• School supply fees: There is now a place on your Hot lunches site where you can pay the school supply fee for next year. You can also send in cash if you would prefer. The fee for next year is $45.00.

• We are still preparing for our final week celebrations! It's going to be an exciting week and there will be a few more surprises for the children thrown in there as well!

• Homework for the month of June will look a little different (and hopefully fun!). I made a June Homework Bingo that you can complete at your own pace from now until the end of the year! You can initial each box that you complete. I wrote it in English to make it easier for parents. I will still send home books so they have the option for reading as well. I do encourage them to continue with their reading at least a couple of nights throughout the week.

It's that bittersweet time of year so we will be sure to make the best of it in class!

**This week we will be continuing our Halloween theme in our writing and orally! They have been writing some spooky sentences and this week we will be describing monsters!

In math we have been practicing counting and have started skip counting by 2's (to 20), 5's and 10's (to 60). We are working our way up to counting to 100, going up by 10 each week, and this week we are at 70! We have also been working on representing the numbers 1-20 in different ways!

In reading we are working on identifying the first sound in a word and then working to sound out the whole word. Since we have finished reviewing our letters, we are now working on our double sounds like "ou, ch, oi". While we are doing this, it's still a good idea to review their letter names and sounds at home.

Here are some notes for this week:

• Coupon books are due back on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week!

• Friday is fake Halloween! Students will be allowed to dress up (just no props) and we will be having a little celebration on Friday. We are still not able to accept items from home but I will be supplying some goodies for them! :)

I will be reviewing these letters with them and changing them up periodically as well based on their needs. You can expect to see these baggies in their homework bags starting Tuesday.

I believe that is all for this week as of now! I will let you know if anything comes up!

Please see attached the Covid Screening list.

Have a wonderful week!

September 28th- October 2nd

• We will be having our Terry Fox Run during gym class on Wednesday of this week. If you would like to make a donation you can send in a loonie or toonie before Thursday of this week.

• Wednesday, September 30th is also Orange Shirt Day.

  • Every Child Matters is a movement that is sweeping our country and YOU are invited to become a part of it! At six years old, Phyllis Webstad was excited about starting school. Her grandmother took her shopping and Phyllis picked out a shiny orange shirt to wear on the first day of residential school. Her new shirt was taken from her on that first day and she never saw it again. Phyllis' story is similar to many residential school survivors. Held annually on September 30th, this day honours these survivors of Indian Residential Schools. Please consider participating in Orange Shirt Day this year.

• We are asking when you place your orders with the PEI Healthy School Food Program, that you put your child's grade/number instead of the teachers name. We have teachers who have the same first and last names, which makes is difficult to get the lunches to the correct classes. Our class is 1I.

• If you have headphones that you are able to send in for when we use the Chromebooks it would be greatly appreciated. :)

• Homework this week:

  • Students can continue to review their letters and numbers to 20

  • I have sent home a booklet that we have practiced in class for them to read at home this week called "Voici". This book can stay at home.

  • There is a list of syllables for them to practice to help with putting sounds together. We practice these each morning as well so they should be familiar with them!

• A reminder to review the Covid Screening Checklist located below.

Have a fantastic week!

September 21st-25th

Happy Monday!

A few notes for this week:

• Picture Day will be at a later date this year and I will let you know when we know that date.

• Orange Shirt Day is on September 30th, students are encouraged to wear orange on that day.

• We will begin using the Chromebooks in class so if you had any headphones at home that you could send in with your child that would be a big help!

Homework this week (found in their purple duotang) is to practice identifying the numbers 1-20 in French (out of order) and to practice identifying letters of the alphabet out of order as well. I am sending home a yellow sheet that they can use to help with this. This sheet can stay at home. I have also attached our weekly message that they can practice or pick letters and words out that they are able to identify.

In class this week we will continue practicing our letters and their sounds, counting and our numbers 1-20, and developing our oral language.

Have a fantastic week!

September 14th-18th

Happy Monday everyone!

I sent some homework home in their purple agendas for this week but it is mainly just doing some review and practice. I am asking them to practice identifying letters of the alphabet (I sent a sheet home to help with pronunciation) and their numbers 1-20 (there is also a sheet for the numbers). I did send home the message that we will be practicing every morning but I don't expect them to read it. We practiced picking out words and letters that they recognize so they can do that at home if they like!

This week in school we will be continuing to work on getting into our routines and finding our groove! In math we will continue our work on counting (1-20) and identifying these numbers. We will also be working on identifying our letter names and sounds along with writing them. Our reading and writing workshop routines will be starting this week as well! It will be a busy week but they are adjusting well!

Just a reminder of our screening checklist located below:

Have a wonderful week!
