Homework
1. Literacy Map:
No Literacy Map homework over the weekend.  Homework books will be kept at school for marking and returned on Monday. 

2. Reading:
Please have your child read for a minimum of 10-15 minutes per night.  This can be a paper book or Raz-Kids.  If using Raz-Kids please have your child listen to the book, read the book, and then complete the comprehension quiz (independently).  Remember to allow your child time when solving unknown words.  Encourage them to use single and double graphemes, think about what would make sense, use the picture clues, and skip the word and continue reading to solve the word. 

3.Tell and Show:
Please note that some weeks we get fairly busy with daily learning tasks and may not have time to get to every student’s Tell and Show.  If your child is unable to share on their day please reassure them that they will get to share the following day.  Next week, students will be sharing letter U.  Please allow your child to complete this work independently.  Thank you to those of you who have been doing this already.  If you are concerned we will not be able to read your child’s writing please just scribe underneath what they have written. 

Ask Me About:
Science:
What did we do in Science?
What sorts of materials do we have for our building unit?

Gym:
What are we learning in Gym right now?

Story:
What story did we read during snack today?

Reminders:
   1.    Booking for Student Led Conferences is now open.  To book go to the Panorama Hills website and click on the MY CBE ACCOUNT button.  This is not a private Parent Teacher Conference, there will be 4 families in the classroom per hour.  This is your child’s opportunity to show you what they have been working on as you engage in a variety of different activities.  If you require a private meeting with your child’s teacher please send them an email to book an alternate time.
   2.    We are still looking for a variety of materials.  Please send in any of the following: popsicle sticks, tooth-picks, card-board (Please do not send entire boxes, please only send it if cut into manageable pieces), clean empty food tins, empty toilet-paper rolls, empty paper-towel rolls, egg-cartons, string, paper plates, and any other recycle materials that are appropriate for building with.  Thank you to those of you who have already contributed!
   3.    Please continue to send in your Boston Pizza receipts to support our Boston Pizza Fundraiser.  When your child brings in a receipt they have a chance to win a prize!
   4.    We would like to do a project with our Gr.3 buddies but require some supplies.  We are looking for empty clean glass baby food jars with lids.
