Pumpkin Picking

A picture from last night when I set up the “Pumpkin Patch.” I call it the calm before the storm.

It was a pumpkin kind of day!

A rainy day is never complete without a good story!

A snack makes every thing better!

I call this one – The Storm

Book Bags

I sent home Book Bags today. Feel free to keep them as long as you like. You can return them when you are finished reading them and I will send new books home every Friday if you have returned the last set.

New Phonograms for the week of October 12th

Here are the new phonograms that I introduced on Tuesday….

Good Morning, School!

Happy Thursday!

Robert Munsch Unit

We are enjoying our Robert Munsch Unit and have now read 28 Robert Munsch books! We are now doing some printing and drawing with some of our stories. Our focus is:

• comprehension of what we read
• printing letters with good formation on an interlined line
• know the different between a tall letter and a short letter
• neat pencil work and erasing
• drawing to show learning

This beautiful example of work is from Jase!

Pumpkin Picking

We are excited to go out to the garden to pick our pumpkins. It looks like the weather will not be as favourable as I had hoped or as had been predicted. The kids are in Knight Wear so that will help. Please send rain boots and rain jackets, as well as a plastic bag to lug their pumpkin back to the school in! I will take some pictures so that you can see how cute they are!

Does anyone have a Magazine or two?

I am looking for a few magazines that the kids could cut pictures out of for a study of needs and wants in Social Studies. If you have an old magazine or two, we would love to have them!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and get to spend time with family and enjoy eating a nice dinner together!

Friday afternoon Play Centres

It’s a rainy Friday afternoon. You really can’t appreciate how loud they are unless you are here!

Corn!

It’s an exciting day when they cut the corn!
