Good afternoon,
We had another great week in grade 1! This week we worked on using adjectives in our writing and when speaking. We are practicing our short vowel sounds during literacy centres.
We continued to work on our pop-up communities in social studies. They look AMAZING and the students have put so much time and effort in. We will be virtually sharing these with you next week.
This week we reviewed Bossy E (it can make a vowel say its name, like in the words game, name, like, cake, etc). We also learned about the WH digraph. You can ask your child to tell you what sound WH makes and they might be able to tell you some words that begin with this digraph too.
Reminders:
-Students MUST be in formal uniform every Monday, but especially this Monday (Jan 24) as we are filming our assembly!
-Homework books were sent home today as well as spelling tests. Great work everyone!
-On Monday, students will be given one box of Covid rapid tests to take home (5 tests in the box). Masks will be kept at school and students will be offered a new one in the morning and at lunch if they need one.
Have a great weekend!
Ms. Overdevest and Mr. H
