Hi Families,
Our first full week of school! There were definitely some droopy eyelids by the time today's dismissal rolled around!
This week, we have been busy developing some work routines. Ask your child about:
- our Animated Literacy characters*
- our connected Word Work where students work at their just-right literacy level
- our Shape of the Day activities that develop our mathematical language for attributes*
- our delicious Apple Pie poem describing our 5 senses*
- their illustrated diagram identifying which body parts match each of the 5 senses
- the book "Our Class is a Family", and what words they used to describe our class family*
- the book "A Place for Mulan", generously shared by a student celebrating her birthday this week
- our Google Meet virtual assembly hosted by Ms. Durnford and Mrs. Jones
- our new school t-shirts! Peace, Gratitude, Montessori!
- our first fire drill: Quick, Quiet and Calm
*Materials/visuals or templates for these activities re available on Google Classroom to support home learning routines, or in the case of a prolonged absence from school*
A reminder that next Friday, September 25th is a Non-Instructional Day, no school for students.
Have a wonderful, restful weekend everyone!
Ms. Thomas
