Good morning everyone! We launched our reading groups yesterday, picked our own short stories for our reading boxes, and practiced the first part of our reading program, Daily Five. Do you remember what it was called girls and boys? (Read to Self).  Mrs. Comeau taught us a really groovy song to help us pick our books!! Were you singing it to your family last night? I was practicing at the supper table with my family! They thought it was pretty good J ! We also put up five sight words on our word wall and made up a song for them too! Boy oh boy does Mrs. Comeau like to sing! It makes things so much more fun to learn!! In grade 1 Math class, we modeled our number of the day in different ways, continued to practice counting to 20, making different groups with a given number, and explored different ways to make patterns with snap cubes and found the part that repeats! The grade two’s learned how to gather information about themselves and others to answer questions. They are learning how to create graphs with Mrs. Robinson! Do you remember the names of the graph’s you will be creating grade 2? (Pictographs and concrete graphs) In You and Your World Ms. Gallant went over our bus safety rules and we wrote down one rule that we remembered and then began to color our buses, then it was off to the gym for Phys. Ed. ! What did you do in there yesterday boys and girls? This evening we will have our open house. This is where everyone will have a chance to meet the other teachers at St. Andrew’s and ask any questions you may have! I hope to see you all there! Have a great day!!
