March 31

Annie tickets were sent home today.  Please return as soon as possible as they tickets are available on a first come first serve basis.

We have started reading one of my favourite novels.  It is called Charlotte's Web.  This book ties in perfectly with our Small Flying and Crawling Animals unit.

Here are some pictures of the kids working hard comparing insects and other small crawling critters.



In writing we are working on comparing 2 different things.  Many students are currently comparing the similarities between winter and summer.  This writing project ties in nicely with our current Science unit.  

Today in math we started talking about and comparing 2d and 3d shapes.  Our next step will be to sort shapes using 2 different attributes.  We have finished talking about how to read a calendar (for now).  Please please practice this skill at home with your child.  Ask them questions such as:  How many is 2 weeks from today?   How many days was 1 week ago?  What day of the week will it be in one week etc.  Thank you for your support with this.

Mrs. Kinsman read us a book today called Going Places.  Tomorrow will officially be her last day.  We sure will miss her but we wish her good luck at her new school.

Next week we will be starting an inquiry project about bees.  This is going to be a lot of fun.  Stay tuned for more details.

Also, please check out our website.  I have added some new photos.

Gymnastics starts on Monday.  Swimming starts on the 18.  April 22 is Mr. S's last day :(  and also Sophia's birthday :).  I know Mr. S is going to miss us. 

Have a wonderful evening.

P.S.  Don't forget that tomorrow is April Fool's Day :)
