Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone is enjoying their week so far!

We started off the day with circle time when I posed a question for everyone to "inquire" on, one of the Learner Profile attributes for the IB Program.  My question was "what is your favourite thing to do at the park?"  Many students said they enjoyed going on the swings and the slides, but the most favourite thing for everyone to do at the park, a unanimous vote, is to play in the sand. I agreed since I greet them hello after recess, smiling at their sandy outfits. By looking at them, I know all of the students had a fun time in the sand box!

After circle time, we talked about this week's fable, "Little Red Riding Hood."  Yesterday, we made a wolf mask in remembrance of the wolf in the book. Today, we did a counting worksheet that dealt with counting the number of raisins on each of Little Red Riding Hood's cookies. After counting, students had to circle the correct number of raisins on the worksheet.  We also coloured a picture of Little Red Riding Hood and glued little pieces of red construction paper onto her cape.

We worked on number tracing, specifically recognizing, counting, and discussing the number 5.  We did a Sesame Street number 5 worksheet as well.

We also did letter tracing worksheets.

We read a book that introduces the winter season and the concluding of the fall season.  It is a very cute book called "Alfie's Long Winter," which is about a leaf named Alfie who was too scared to float off his tree at the end of Fall, so he stayed on the tree throughout the winter season.  Everyone enjoyed listening to Alfie's story very much. They also learned a little more about the physical differences between winter and fall!

We had gym, drama, and french.

A reminder: Picture Day forms/Money are due by Friday, November 18.  Please put them in the book bag, separate from the agenda. Thanks :)


Have a great night :)
