November News

Hello!

Can you believe we’re already into the month of November? I felt a bit silly as I changed the calendar in the classroom and decorated it with mittens and snowflakes.  Little did I know we’d have BEAUTIFUL weather!  Although I suppose I shouldn’t speak too soon....

Since this is such a short week, we will not be having spelling homework or a test.  The students did PHENOMENAL on our Math test regarding Data Analysis, and this week we are kicking off our Patterning unit.  Also coming home soon are our Social Studies TIPI Books based on First Nations’ culture, and our Halloween books FINALLY went home! I hope you enjoyed reading your students writing! 

Just a quick reminder if you haven’t already done so, the Hot Lunch order forms are due on Wednesday.  Also, I hope you can make it to our Remembrance Day Assembly at 10:30 where all the Grade 2’s will be performing.  Students on Wednesday need to wear dark pants or jeans, and a white or red shirt.  They will also need to bring in a flashlight ASAP for practise. 

Also, we are in need of a few supplies in our classroom for some upcoming Christmas craft projects. 

Each student will need to bring in 1 shoebox, preferably a regular shoe size (not a children’s shoe box).

If you have any extra of the following supplies, that would be super helpful as well!

-sequins

-buttons

-scrap pieces of fabric

-green yarn

-OLD CHRISTMAS CARDS! (we only need the front side)

Any of those supplies can be brought in between now and December, and I promise they’ll be put to good use J

Parent/ Teacher interviews can now be booked online! A handout has already gone home, but the instructions are also posted on page 3 of the November newsletter.  Each month the newsletter is posted here:

Thank you for your awesome job with Home Reading and initialling your child’s agenda every night J
