week of October 22nd to 26th

Grade 1
This week I asked the students to share with me and the class what they were going to be for Halloween. They then had to draw their costume in their blue books and get ready to share with the rest of the class.

Grade 2
This week we worked on Halloween vocabulary and we did our bingo game. The kids were happy and they all won stickers!

Grade 3
We are still working on body parts and we worked on adjective order in a sentence. In English we write the adjective before the noun so we practiced this a lot. ex: a long nose, two short arms, a round head etc...

This week we worked on the song "GO AWAY" and practiced the words we saw in that song. We looked over the vocabulary and then we sang the song. We then coloured a monster following the colours corresponding to the numbers on the page. Here is the link to the song if you want to practice and sing with your kids!

We worked on our Halloween bingo page and worked on the vocabulary found with the images. The students had to finish it at home so we can play next week as a group!

Grade 3
We worked on our unit Body Parts and continued with the vocabulary and work in the book. I also sent back their tests with them so it should be in their agendas. Please take a look at it and you can be proud as they did very well!

this week we only saw each other one time. We read the book "There was an old lady who swallowed a bat". The students worked on Halloween vocabulary again and we had a page to work after they read the book. It was very fun and the kids had to try recall the information of the book to do the work asked.

We started the new unit on Body Parts. We reviewed body parts and played a game called Simon says to practice body parts. They kids are working hard I am very happy!

This week we worked on Halloween vocabulary and read the book Big Pumpkin By Erica Silverman. The witch wanted to eat pumpkin pie and she then planted a pumpkin seed. But once the pumpkin grew it was to big to pull out of the garden all by herself! She then met new friends like a vampire, a bat, a mummy and a ghost. Ask them about the book, they loved it!

This week we learned and sang the song Knock Knock Trick or treat by Super Simple Songs. The kids got to learn words like ballerina, ghost, monster etc. They then got to make a mask and we asked then who are you? and they had to answer me their mask! They are very good!!! Make sure you go see the song : https://youtu.be/4jxcWlq3CBg

week of September 24th to 28th

Grade 1
This week with my grade one students we continued working on learning our colours. We read the book " What colour is your underwear" by Sam Lloyd. The kids love the silly story about animal wearing coloured underwear and it has a very funny ending!

Grade 2
This week we continued with behaviour and things we can do at school and can't do at school! The students read a funny story about monsters going to school and the bad ideas they have! The students then had to sort the behaviour in the correct category Children behaviour vs Monster behaviour.

Grade 3
This week we continued and are working on revising our words in English as to prepare for our test next week. The students also received our Goals in October in their agenda. Please encourage your children to try and get more English in your lives by doing these simple little things! ex: watch 15 minutes of TV in English, read a book in English, say good morning or good afternoon to Miss Elisabeth, find 5 words that start with the letter B and share with the class. Look in your kids agenda please!
