Value of the Month

Our value this month is Responsibility. The children are learning that responsibility comes in many different ways. At school they are responsible for unpacking their bags, taking care of their lunch during garden time, doing their classroom jobs and of course finishing their work! Does your child have responsibilities at home? Some responsibilities at home could be packing their bag before they go to bed, cleaning up their toys or having chores around the house. 

Thank You

I would like to thank you all for coming to the parents meeting. It was great speaking to you! Please make sure to sign the progress report and send it back with your child.

This Week we will be learning:

Science: Plants types and life cycles
Social Studies: The Earth and its surface
Math: We will have a quiz on two digit addition and start two digit subtraction.
Language Arts: Many kids moved up in their reading levels so they will start bringing home harder book.

Thank you
