Nov 24-28

Well, we've reached the last week of November, and the kids are already looking ahead to Christmas!  Thank goodness the next few weeks are full weeks as we have a lot to do before then!

Notes:

• I enjoyed meeting with each of you at parent teacher interviews.  We had some nice conversations to give us some direction for the next couple of months. 
• GREAT NEWS......Raz-Kids has an APP!  I found that out at hockey this weekend when the child sitting next to me was working on her iPad.  I searched it out and it is a free app.  The kids can use their school log in. 

Curriculum:

• Math - We are beginning to learn about telling time.  This week students will be exploring time, comparing digital and analog clocks, and learning to tell time by the half hour.  You can help at home by encouraging your child to practice telling time on an analog clock.
• Language Arts -
• Spelling - we will have a spelling dictation this Thursday; students should be practicing their sorts at home.
• Writing - we start a special writing project this week that I can't tell you any more about! 
• Social - We continue learning about the Parkland Region
• Science - We will be learning about friction and force.
