Homework

Literacy Map:
Please encourage
your child to print 1 line of each spelling word and at 2 sentences using these
words. As they are printing the words
they should be making the sounds for each grapheme they print. When completing their sentences, students
should remember to start with an uppercase, end with punctuation, and include
juicy words (descriptive vocabulary).

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:
This is our last week of Tell & Show. This week will be sharing letter Z and any other letters students
haven’t shared yet. 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.

Blue Forms: There are blue forms in your
child’s purple folder that need to be signed and returned to school as soon as possible for our May
14th Fieldtrip to Bowmont Park. Parent Volunteers will also need to
fill out a form, which we will send with your child.

Volunteering: We now have enough volunteers for our May 14th
fieldtrip to Bowmont Park. Mrs.
McGivern’s class has enough volunteers for Heritage
Park (June 3rd – ALL DAY)
but Ms. Beechey is still looking for more.
Both classes still require volunteers for our Birdhouse Building (June 8th-12:30 -3:00). If you are
interested in volunteering and have completed/will be completing your Police
Clearance please email your child’s teacher.

Canceling “Fun Lunch”: Our May 14th field
trip will be on a “fun lunch” day. It is
recommended that you cancel your child’s fun lunch that day. If you are unable to cancel the lunch, it will
be kept in the fridge and given to your child at the end of the day. To cancel
see below:
All Orders can be canceled or deleted as long as it is before
the 5 day cut-off. Go to the "My orders" tab and select
"My Up-Coming Orders". You will see all of your up-coming orders with
a "Delete" button to the right. When you delete an order your refund
will be automatically sent to your method of payment. It will show on your
Credit Card or bank account within 24-48 hours.
