This week we have been talking about "resolutions". Some students were already familiar with the idea from "New Years Resolutions". We read a story called "Squirrel's New Years Resolution" and found out that a resolution is "a promise you make to yourself to better yourself, or to help others". We brainstormed somethings that we want to become better at in Grade 1, and today we did some reflective writing about our goals. Hopefully one day we can look back and say we accomplished our goals!
In writing, we are working to use finger spaces, use the word wall for spelling, use inventive spelling/kid spelling, draw a neat and detailed picture, create 2 or more sentences, and print our letters neatly and legibly.
Any practice at home with this helps! Students can practice printing a sentence about their day at school, their favourite animals, favourite sports, whatever they wish!
Scholastic book orders were sent home today. They are due by Thursday, January 16th.
Today we had another blue day. We are preparing for many more blue days! Thank you for helping your child to wear their warm clothes!
Reminder that students will need to bring in a stuffed animal for a math task for Monday. It will stay at school for a few days so please select one that they can be apart from for this time :)
