 Hello Families, Thanks you so much for joining us for Family Literacy day if you were able to. Here are a few Literacy games you can play at home. We will also be trying these at school too! Literacy Games We have been very busy in our classroom over the last few weeks!  We learned about the digraphs th, sh, ch, and wh. We sorted pictures that had each digraph at the beginning of the word or at the end of the word. Students were encouraged to attempt to spell each word as well.  We learned about compound words and played the game, I have ___, who has ___ to match up our cards and make compound words together. Amazing writing has been taking place. We read The Colour Monster again. Each student picked an emotion or feeling as well as a colour to go along with it. Each day we added a sentence in our writing to tell about our colour and feeling. We learned about similies and were able to transfer our learning into our writing! Some examples were: Green is a beautiful as an emerald. Gree

 Hope that you can join us for Family Literacy Day at LBS!

 Hi Families, Happy New Year! I hope that everyone had a wonderful Winter Break. We have had a busy but great week, settling back into routines.  We started off the week learning about what a resolution was and wrote our own. We also choose a word for the year, learned the definition and wrote about why that word was important to us. Ask your child what their word is! In Math we revisited number lines and number bonds in preparation for learning addition! We also learned about the Sacred Medicines: Sage, Tobacco, Sweetgrass and Cedar. We sketched each plant and wrote one fact about each one.  Have a wonderful weekend!
