Pre-March Break

Bonjour,

Thank you to all who made it to parent-teacher interviews. It was great to see you and chat about your child's progress.



This week we are mostly concentrating on our transportation theme. Today the wrote about what they plan to create tomorrow with the recycled products. They are excited to get building!

Class Dojo - It is possible to post pictures to your classdojo. Feel free to try this application out and                           post a picture of your child reading or doing some homework if you wish. This will                             give the kids another perspective of where French Learning can take place-at home!


In math we are continuing with addition & subtraction and seeing this in math centers as well.


Have a great March Break!

March 7

Bonjour,

This week we will be having parent-teacher interviews. I will be sending home your meeting times on Monday and hopefully the times will work well. There is no school for the kids Friday.

In writing we are continuing with Personal Retell. Last week we worked a lot on how authors find ideas when they write and we began working on adding detail to our written work--even if it is simply adding a word or two to a sentence.

In math we are continuing with addition and subtraction up to 18. We continue to work with many different types of manipulatives:

les jetons (little chips)
number lines
10s chart
place value

Reminder: the week before March Break we will be making transport vehicles out of recycled goods. Please bring some if you have any.


Have a good evening,
Dominick
