16 novembre, 2015

This week at school, we are studying the sound EU at school. Ask your child to show you the action for this special sound.  The words are:

Grade one:
1. bleu - blue
2. jeu - game
3. feu - fire
4. neuf - nine
5. peu - a little
6. jeudi - Thursday

The students are doing great with these spelling words and seem to have grasped the most important components of writing sentences (Capital letter to start and period to finish).  Bravo!

Grade two:
1. heureuse - happy!
2. au milieu - in the middle
3. ordinateur - computer
4. joyeux - joyful
5. seul - alone
6. nerveuse - nervous
7. les yeux - eyes
8. déjeuner - breakfast
** bonus words ...
9. rugueuse - rough, like sandpaper
10. creuse - to dig.

On Thursday, there will be photo retakes - if you would like a retake, please return the original photo on Thursday.

Thursday at 11:00 am - we will be having a 3V (Skype - like session with a bear expert).  Please join us for this fun experience, if you are available.

Friday is a half day.  Students are to bring in a stuffed teddy bear for a special bear activity in the class on Friday morning.

 I have discussed a building project with the students.  They are to be thinking about what kinds of materials a bear would have in his/her den for the winter.  I will provide the den and we will be sculpting the bears in class; if there is anything at home that would be suitable for this project, please send it in this week (moss, small rocks and stones, hay...).  We will start our projects late this week and will finish next week.

Have a great week!
