We have just been having too much fun for me to remember to do a blog post. While we are still continuing with all of our academics right through until the end of December, we have been doing a fun winter activity every day as a countdown to the end of school for the year.

Thursday, Friday, and today were all to do with decorating our class! It's looking very Wintery in div 1! 

Please send dictée books on Friday. Our dictée activity for this week will be done only in class. It is essential that students bring their duotangs in order for this activity to happen. 

Some students have some writing to finish for homework tonight, and need to practice their song for the winter concert. You can find the words here, and the audio here

Here is a great article to explain about writing and how I approach it in our classroom. You can read it here
Just FYI there is no dictée this week. We are taking a little break before we go back and do words that they misspelled before.

Ack! User error seems to be the most common problem with technology. I wrote a whole post and forgot to press publish. 

We will be doing a science experiment blitz on Wednesday. I need your help to make sure we have enough materials for each kid. If you have any of the following, please send it to school on Tuesday or Wednesday. 

- clean glass jars. Please make sure these never had nut products in them, as we will be eating out from some of these jars. 

- tin foil

- packing peanuts 

Thanks in advance!
