December Updates

December is here and the Advent Season has begun. It was wonderful to see so many families at our Advent mass last week.  The students did a wonderful job singing the songs and participating in the mass.

We will be reviewing all of our Word Wall Words to date this week, so please go over all the words in your child's word box with him/her. Last week, we learned how to write a card. This week, we will add a Christmas Card writing center to our language centers.  We are finishing up our unit on patterning in Math and will begin to focus on 2D shapes - naming them, identifying how many corners/vertices and sides they have, and sorting them according to different sorting rules.

In Science, we will wrap up our unit on the Daily and Seasonal Changes by creating a poster of our favourite season, and conferencing with the teacher to show what we know.  We are practicing a song for the school concert on Thursday, December 19th at 1 p.m. Parents are welcome to attend! 
Reminder:  The grade 1B class is asked to donate gravy and stuffing mix for our Christmas hamper project.  Thank you to all the families that have already sent in donations.
