Monday October 20, 2014


Homework
1. Please have your child complete 2 lines of each double grapheme with 5 on each line in the blue book labeled Literacy Map.  Your child will now be working in their blue notebook each day at school.  They will then do the exact same printing directly underneath at home for homework.  Please have your child print the word “homework” so that we can easily identify what was done at school and what was done at home.  Please make sure this book comes to school each day.

You will notice that we are reviewing the same graphemes as last week.  The graphemes were very challenging so we are spending an extra week ensuring we have a strong knowledge base.

Monday: ow: how, low
                  ou: noun, your, you, young


2.  Read for 20 minutes everyday.  This could be a library book, home reading or a book online.  It is beneficial to have your child read their home reading book more than once.  This helps to improve fluency.  Have your child practice “check for understanding.”  They read a few pages, stop, and retell what they have read so far.  If they can’t tell you what they have read then they need to go back and reread.

Reminders
      1.    Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra (CPO) forms went home today for our November 6th Music fieldtrip.  Please fill it out and return it as soon as possible. 

      2.    Remember to bring your “Tell and Show” duotang to school on your assigned day and be prepared to share.  This week your child should only complete the “B” page, sharing something that begins with B.  We want to be challenged so be creative!!

3. Our Library rotation has started!  Please remember to check your child's library day and ensure their books are returned so that they can take out new ones.  Their library books should be returned to school in their plastic library bag.  Click below to access the library rotation schedule: 

4.  Please remember to help out our Panorama Hills Community Enhancement Society (PHCES) by brining in your Boston Pizza receipts.  Please refer to the hand-out sent home last week for more information.
