Greetings!

Hi everyone! Please see this month's dates to remember. If you are not familiar with what Tutti Frutti Tuesday is the SWAT team has asked students to count how many fruit and veggies snacks they have in the lunches at snack time. They will be keeping track for the month of May and then the winning class for the most will win a healthy snack prize!

Last week we were very lucky with many special guests teaching us fun things! We had Miss. Brenda and Miss. Trystin back to work on our printing, they have noticed their formation of letters is doing much better when asked to print the single letter, however when asked to form a word/sentence that is where many lose their letter form. That will be the focus this week. We also had Miss. Angel from division office come in and work with the students on their digital skills within a math lesson that I created. The kids learned how to use Google Draw. For Education week we had a special guest come in on Wednesday and teach us Zumba. Thursday a lady came and taught us about Celtic Traditions within Canada. Then Friday afternoon we had a BLAST at the science fair looking at all the displays that the division two students completed.

Language: We continue working on our reading comprehension and building stronger sentences. The students also continued to work with R and H blends within words. We have been practices lots using the past tense verbs and I am starting to see the children use it independently in their writing!

Social: We continued to talk about family traditions. Specifically looking at the student's birthday and this also worked into our Mother's Day planning.

Science: We started our Needs of Plants and Animals unit. Last week we worked on what the difference between a living and non living things was.

Math: We completed looking at 2D shapes, this week we will introduce and move on to 3-dimensional shapes with a fun Star Wars theme.
