Today in Kindergarten each of the classes read one of their classmates favorite story. We have had some new stories that even the adults have not heard. When your child chooses their book can you please encourage them to choose a story to be read.
Reminder: If you happen to miss your child’s day please ask your teacher if your child is able to make it up at the end. Tomorrow is letter G – happy item hunting! (more information below) NO School Friday November 25th Reminders: Stephen’s Backpacks! It is that time of year again to start going through your child's toys and books. The grade 1s will be hosting a TOY AND BOOK SALE to support Stephen's Backpack Society on November 24, 2016 for the entire day. Please send in any gently used toys and/or books starting on November 21. We will also accept cash donations. All of the money raised this year will be used to purchase backpacks filled with items like books, toothbrushes, and toys for children that live on the streets in Calgary. For more information about this program please go to the Stephen's Backpack Society at http://www.stephensbackpacks.com. LETTER DAYS It will be done each Tuesday and Thursday we will be exploring a new letter of the alphabet. For letter A some of the items that we had were: Apple air plane ace asparagus Aloe A book with the title that starts with A the movie Atlantis We are inviting students to bring ONE item for each letter day from home to add to our Alphabet Museum. We will be doing a variety of learning activities with the items such as sorting, counting, and writing to help us investigate the alphabet. Have your child take charge of the activity by letting them find the item on their own, putting it in their communication bag and bringing it to school. Here are the upcoming letter days: November: 22nd G 24th H December: 1st I 6th J 8th K 13th L 15th M We have also been watching an alphabet video for each letter. The website we use is “Have fun Teaching” and then look for letter videos on youtube. Winter Concert: The winter concert is on November 30th. There will be two performances, one in the day and then an evening performance. The times will depend on whether your child is morning or afternoon Kindergarten. AM shows 10:00 and 5:30 (time change) PM shows 2:00 and 7:00 The grade 1 and 2 classes will be split between these times. We will be able to move children for the evening show so that you will only need to attend one performance. If you find that your children are at two different times please let your child's teacher know. For more information please check the school newsletter on the website. Enjoy your night!
