What an amazing week! The boys and girls are all doing such an amazing job. Please continue doing Home Reading and Sight Words every day.  There will be new sight words this week and they are; then, not, school, today, and if.  We will be doing a lot of physical activity every day, and need to be drinking more water. Please send a bottle of water to school (with name on it).   We will continue to practice partners of 10 (2+8, 7+3, 6+4, etc.). It would be great if you could review these at home.

During reading/phonics, we are continuing with the letter "p." Students will be reading a book that blends "p," "g," "ck," "n," "k," "j," "h," "i," "b," "s," "a," "t," "m," "c" and "f." 

 Please continue to practice the words that we have already learned EVERYDAY. In Language Arts we are learning about Fairy Tales.

In Class this Week...
☼    In math, we are practicing partners of 10 (2+8, 7+3, 6+4, etc.). It would be great if you could review these at home.
☼    During reading/phonics, we are looking at the letter “p.” Students will be reading a book that blends “p,” “g,” “ck,” “n,” “k,” “j,” “h,” “i,” “b,” “s,” “a,” “t,” “m,” “c” and “f.”
☼    There are 5 new sight words this week: make, come, his, so and down. Please continue to practice the words that we have already learned EVERYDAY.
☼    We are learning about Fairy Tales.

Show & Tell
During this month only, each student is encouraged to bring ONE toy that he/she received for Christmas to show during his/her Show & Tell time.

Library Books

Library books/bags must be returned to our class’ yellow bin (just inside our class door) by WEDNESDAY.  If your child is done with his/her books early, please return them at that time. Let’s work hard to prevent overdue books this year.

Change of Clothes
We have recently begun the “wet field” season at Haldane. Students are returning from recess/lunch completely soaked. Please send a complete change of clothes (including socks) to school in a plastic bag with your son/daughter’s name on it. It will stay in the classroom for emergencies.

I am very excited to see many grade one students starting to change reading levels. If your son/daughter has not yet moved to level 3 (or higher), the best way to help your child be a successful reader is to practice sight words and home reading DAILY.
Highlights this Week:
Monday, Jan. 20-Big Buddies & New sight words
Tuesday, Jan. 21-
Wednesday, Jan. 22-Library books due & Gym Day
Thursday, Jan. 23-Gym Day, Library exchange and Roots of Empathy 
Friday, Jan. 24-Computers & Fine Arts

Have a wonderful week,

As always you can contact me by phoning the school or email me through this site.
