January 24th


January 24th

Community Kindergarten
This week in Social Studies we learned all about communities. We learned about how we can have a community with our friends as well as be part of the larger Tuscany Community. We got very creative and actually  built Tuscany Community using materials in the classroom. We used our sounding out skills to label different buildings in Tuscany.

We are also learning about Chinese New Year’s. Ask your child what they would do if they had “Sam’s Lucky Money.”

We look forward to seeing you next week for our Celebration of Learning! 

Home Reading 

Home reading books were sent out on Wednesday. Please make sure you fill out the home reading log and return those books to school on Monday. A detailed letter of expectations and tips for how to help your child with reading was e-mailed home. 

Stuffies Day

On Monday, January 27th we will have our first “Stuffies Day”! That means students can bring one stuffed animal to school. We will be reading our home reading books to our fluffy friends on this day so make sure you practice all your reading at home this weekend! 

French Immersion:
This week we have continued our focus on number sense. We looked at how we can represent a number in a lot of ways using a ten frame, number bonds, drawings and words. We are also focusing on how to correctly form each number so that it isn’t backwards.
In French we are still working on the question “ qu’est-ce que tu aimes faire pendant l’hiver?” We have brainstormed a lot of vocabulary so now we are putting it to use in other activities and centers.
We look forward to seeing everyone next Wednesday for our Celebration of Learning!
