Just a reminder that on Friday, September 27, we have Wok Box hot lunch. We will be doing our theme reading quiz tomorrow, testing the meaning of this week's words about the Amazon. If you have time, it might be fun to google Amazon with your child and look at images or videos. We will be doing a writing sample on Friday that begins with this sentence. "Imagine you are in a canoe paddling down the Amazon. When you round a corner you suddenly see....." I plan to show the IMAX DVD titled "Amazon" before we do our writing activity, but the more familiar they are with the environment, the more they will be able to describe it vividly.
We learned that articles a, an, and the usually precede and signal that a noun is coming up next in grammar. Ask your child for an example in a sentence.
We learned about Kelowna today and started our mind-map about this BC city. I am very proud of the work the children are doing in Social Studies.
We had another great day in Gym with our fitness program.
