I can share my experiences with others.
I can work with a team.
I can respect myself, others and my space.
The students have had numerous opportunities and experiences to get to know one another within our classroom community. Some examples include: WIN time, games, conversations, Circle Talks, and our All About Me bags. We will continue to spend time getting to know each other and making meaningful connections as time goes on!
Learning Intentions:
I can follow classroom rules and expectations.
I can be proactive.
I can listen to stories and videos and make connections.
I can reflect on my learning and share information through pictures, words or sentences.
I can control myself, including my words and my actions.
This week, the Grade 1s and 2s started their exploration of “The 7 Habits of Happy Kids.” Through discussions, videos, games, stories, and independent work, the student focused on Habit #1: Be Proactive – You’re in Charge! The students will continue to explore the remaining habits over the next few weeks. We will be using the 7 Habits to help set the tone for our classroom rules and expectations.
Supporting Your Student at Home:
Please check the side for tasks you can do with your child at home to support their learning and growth.
Math:
Grade 1: Counting to 100
Grade 2: Counting within 1000
Spelling:
On Fridays, your child will bring home a weekly spelling list for you to practice with them at home. They will have a spelling test on the words the following Friday. Please practice these words with your child at home to support their development of reading and writing skills. I have attached a photo of the lists below, in case you'd like to start practicing over the weekend. They will bring their first list home on Monday!
