The beginnings of our construction...blocks of different sizes, dominoes, and cards.  Next week...a city! 

Some students still do not have these envelopes for their reading program. They are sturdier than a ziploc bag.  If your child does not come home with one tonight, please consider purchasing one.  Merci.

Friday is dress as a teacher day. We would like to keep our
                                                           trophy for the class with the best spirit! Have fun!
                                                           Friday is also Library Day, please bring your books back.
                                                           And finally, today, we will be starting our At Home Reading
                                                           Program. It is expected that your child read at least 3 minutes
                                                           each night in French. Every morning they will be responsible for                                                            exchanging their book and returning it the next day. Reading is a
                                                           great way to improve your French abilities. Bon lecture!

We are working on vocabulary for clothing at this time in French. I have added the pictures and words so that you can help your child learn.  In Social Studies we are talking about responsibilities, our own and those of others in the different groups we belong to. In Math, we continue to work with numbers to 20. Students should be able to say them forwards, backwards and know which # comes before or after another. Practice makes perfect!

Our next Science unit is all about construction.  Please send materials (empty boxes, plastic caps, styrofoam, metal lids, etc...) that are recyclable so that we can put our minds to work and create some cool stuff.

Don't forget that Tuesday  November 10th is picture retake day and also because I was absent on the first picture day, we will be having a class photo on Tuesday...Wear your best smile!

At home reading will now be a big part of your child's learning. Have them sound out syllables to then make words.  For listening to stories in French please visit the following website for good books.  If a story has a speaker, it is able to be heard.
