Hello! It's been a fabulous first week of school and the kids are settling into routines very well. 

In math, we have been working on writing our numbers 1-10 and will begin patterns and sorting next week. 

In Language Arts, we are focusing on learning our lower case alphabet and have worked on the letter "t, b and h". We have also been practicing our words of the week which are "is" and "for". 

We have been speaking about how important our names are and have been celebrating our uniqueness. We have also graphed how many letters are in our names and the majority was 5 letters:) 

We have had time in the gym and in music class and met our grade 4 buddies for the first time today! 

I sent home the Scholastic book orders today - all of the information is included with that form on how to order. 

Next week I will be sending home a paper bag and a form for their "All about Me" bags. Please fill the bag with 4 items that represent your child. They will have to present this to the class. We will be completing 3-4 bags per day. 

Hope you have a fabulous weekend and I'll see you all on Monday! 

Our Terry Fox run will be held on Tuesday, September 19th. We are collecting "Toonies for Terry" and are asking each child to bring in $2 to go towards Cancer Research. Our goal is to collect $1100 as a school. 

Cheers,
