This past week we have started our Alphabet Unit. Our new alphabet books are looking great. The first letters we will be studying are:  Ss, Tt, Aa, Ii, Mm. 

We have introduced a new alphabet song. This song will be a recurring song amongst others. It might take a while for kids to correctly be able to read the song. Please practice as often as possible.

Hello Families,

Last week we were busy learning about the meaning of Remembrance Day and the importance of peace.We pondered about how lucky we are to live in peaceful place. Students also made connections to the Circle of Courage and especially Belonging we thought about feeling safe and loved and having access to the important things we need, such as: family, food, shelter, clean water and education. 

 

  

Weekly Update

Over the course of the week we have been practicing our current song "Light a Candle for Peace". "Songs and Poem"s books were sent home on Thursday and Friday. Please take a moment to enjoy reading and singing with your child. Remind them to use their finger to track the text and point to pictures.  The pictures will help them remember the words in the song. If you would like to find links to videos for any of the songs in your child's "Songs and Poems" book please look at our posts from past weeks.
