If you have the large envelope with all the forms filled out. Please send it back to school with your child and we will make sure the office receives those right away.
So far in Grade 1 we have discussed "How to be Caring..." Some ideas we came up with are: sharing, walking inside, not kicking or hitting, keep hands and feet to ourselves, if someone gets hurt, help them feel better, say sorry, help others, listen to others, try again, write nicely and neatly, sit quietly and we are still coming up with more!
We have also said "Good Bye Summer and Hello School"
Today we were also able to meet with our Grade 5 buddies. We will read with them each week. Sometimes we will go for a walk with them or do an activity together. We are so excited to be paired up with a Grade 5 student.
Today your child brought home a brown paper bag for our Materials Alphabet
Today in Grade 1 we decided to create the Alphabet with materials we have found. Your child helped come up with so many ideas. We are asking each child to bring in enough materials for their letter. Please fill this brown paper bag with any materials you may have, a mix is fine. These materials will not be returned and will be used with hot glue (nothing precious please).
Here are a few more ideas:
cheerios, pom-poms, bread tags, beads, pipe cleaners, beans, macaroni, marshmallows, pennies, twigs, pine cones, small rocks, cotton balls, popsicle sticks, broken crayons, pop can tabs, tissue paper, buttons, marbles, q-tips, lego, rubber bands, yarn, feathers, duo tang prongs, toothpicks, seashells, flowers, fabric, twist ties, popcorn, and any other great ideas you may have.
This is what we hope our Class Alphabets to look like.
