Nov. 7th

Dear Families,

Interim reports were sent home on Wednesday in your child’s secret pouch. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.  Self-assessment can be challenging for children, but it’s an important skill to develop. Some statements on the report are specific, while others are more subjective. I based my judgments on your child’s own reflections about how they feel they are doing.

Club RED Activities
Our Club RED activities began this week! You may have noticed your child adding the “Word of the Day” to their planner. We’ve discussed the meanings in class, I've encouraged them to share these with you they  can write the word in a sentence to enter our weekly draws.

Today, your child also brought home a copy of our reading feathers in their planner. After finishing a book, they can decorate a feather with the book title, their name, and Division 13.

Thank you for your continued support in encouraging reading and self-reflection at home!

Zoob is the best!
Such a fun and creative idea! Using an umbrella as a hoop for tossing pinecones turns something ordinary into a playful outdoor game.

Our three field trips are now confirmed, please sign up fon the portal for skating  Nov. 25th.

Reader’s Workshop
New books (marked with post-its in planners) have started coming home or will be coming soon. Please practice these with your child.

Math Practise                                                                                                                                                   If you didn’t have a chance to play Subtraction Bump last weekend, please try to play it this weekend—it’s a fun way to reinforce math skills!

Celebrating Division 13
I’m so impressed with Div. 13! They brainstormed wonderful words connected to Peace and created beautiful PEACE acrostic poems. 


Looking Ahead: Christmas Craft
I’m planning a holiday craft and wondering if any families have 2x4 wood pieces they could donate and cut for our class. The size needed is approximately 7" x 3½", and we’ll need 18 pieces. If needed, I can purchase the wood if someone is able to cut it. Please let me know if you can help!
