This Week's Updates

Hello Everyone,

Its been a long time and I have missed the students so much. I am so happy and excited to be back. I am glad to hear that the students have been behaving in an excellent way while I was away. We have 5 weeks left till the students take their summer holiday. We are going to work hard and do our best untill the very end.

This week we will resume our daily homework that will be posted on the blog today.

We will cover the following:

Language Arts: We are moving on with phonics and I will start the reading assessments this week. We will continue working on our writing.

Math: 3 Digit Subtraction

Science: We will continue working on Sound. I will send the chapter home so you can read it with them.

Social Studies: We are still working on history and how things change over time.

Please feel free to communicate with me via email or through the channel book if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks
Laila

This Week's Updates

This week is the last week before Spring Break. The kids are very excited to take a holiday!

Tomorrow we have a trip to Plein Air, please make sure to send an old tshirt with your kid as they will do some painting so we dont want them to mess up their school uniform. Also you can send a hat in case its too sunny.

Also, as soon as the kids are back from Spring Break they will have their Arabic and Religion exams. A note will be sent to you with the dates today.

This Week's Learning:

Math: We are going back to addition. The kids will practice adding 3 digit numbers. They need a lot of memory refreshing! We will work hard to master these addition skills.

Language Arts: The kids are really developing in reading and we are now developinh the reading comprehension strategies such as cause and effect and main ideas and details.

Science: We are learning about "Sound" and how sound is made. We will do some experiments to see how sound travels.

Social Studies: We are learning about the changes in history and how different life is now from the past.

 

Some Updates

The school carnival will take place next Saturday 13th April 2013. Its going to be a day filled with fun activities and games for the kids. We would love to see you all there :)

Swimming Tips:

1. Please send your child wearing their swim suit under their clothes in the morning. Please ensure that they bring panties/underpants in their bag.

2. Please label ALL clothing, swim gear, towels, etc. with your child's name.

3. Please send a swimming cap and floaties with your child. If they do not have these, they will not be allowed to swim.

4. Please ensure you send your child with enough food and water! They are using lots of energy and might need something extra in their lunch.

Thanks

New Schedule

As you all know we are starting the swimming classes next Tuesday 2nd April 2013. The children will have one hour of swimming and therefore we changed the schedule.

Sunday: Character Building instead of PE
Tuesday: PE (swimming)

Please make sure your child wears the swimsuit under their uniform to avoid wasting time changing.

Thanks
Laila
