January 19th - 23rd

We started learning about long a vowel sounds with the "magic e" on the end of the word that makes the vowel say it's own name. For example, "gate, mane, case, plate, tape" We will continue to learn about long vowel words with magic e on the end for i, o and u. 

We completed our art cards this week. Your child's art work will be available to purchase soon. 

In math, we have been learning about "friendly tens" (all the addition equations that make 10) and have been reviewing teen numbers. 

Next week we will be learning more about hibernation, migration and adaptation. 

Please remember that there is NO school next Friday, January 30th. 

Have a great weekend!

 Week of January 12th - 16th, 2026

Please remember to have your child bring in a small toy for our science lesson on Monday. There was a note that went home on Friday. 

We added a new centre this week and stamping was a hit! on Friday we had almost the whole class at the back table stamping images. 

We are watching our Eagles nest closely and are awaiting Jackie to lay eggs soon. We are watching the 'Big Bear Bald Eagle nest cam" on YouTube. I have been watching Jackie and Shadow for about 4 years now and learn something new everyday! 

We had a presentation from SPARK dental about how to keep our teeth healthy last week. They had the kids practice life size flossing! 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Welcome back and Happy New Year! 

We had a wonderful week back and jumped right into learning new things! 

We have worked on writing as well as learning new digraphs (sh, ch, th and wh) We will continue with these skills while continuing to work on sentence structure (capitals, periods, finger spaces and using all lower case letters in our words). 

In math, we started to learn about doubles (4+4=8, 6+6=12) and are continuing to work on learning our "teenager" numbers (11-20)

It looks like we will be having some warm weather coming up...please make sure you have an extra change of clothes in your childs bag (socks especially). 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! 

Cheers, Mrs. Burch
