Busy bodies

We have begun our Physical Education program by exploring the gym and learning how to be safe in the gym space. We will continue to develop basic movement skills as we work towards playing in more complex games.

We also are exploring addition using the hundreds chart and practicing our skip counting to discover addition patterns in Math. A review of basic addition facts at home would be helpful. 

In language we began working on making sentences by first brainstorming what exactly makes a sentence and how do we identify the part of a sentence. 

Today is also Character Day. Our students watched a brief video and were asked the question what kind of person do I want to be? The video can be found here. https://vimeo.com/79444520 Please discuss with your child. Use the chart below to help discussion. 

It was also great to see all of the parents of our students at our Open House last week. It's great to see parents who are actively involved in their children's education. Keep reading to and with your child everyday.
