This
month the children have been very busy!
Many
things were happening this month including I love to read month and Catholic’s
Schools Week. Lent season has also started. During the season of Lent, our
focus is on how we can grow closer to Jesus and pray more together as a class.
Catholic’s
Schools Week was a lot of fun! Students got to dress up every day and
participate in activities all week long. Thank you for those who came to family lunch. It was nice to see you all there!
In
math, we explored with different patterns. We looked at increasing patterns,
decreasing patterns and simple patterns such as ABA, ABBA, ABC patterns. We are
now practicing more with our number sense and adding and subtracting up to 20
using different strategies. We also practiced adding word problems.
For
Science, we have explored more on matter. Students got to make ice cream as an
experiment and saw what happens when a liquid turns into a solid. We also
looked at buoyancy and experimented with different objects to see whether or
not it will float. To end this unit, students will design their own boat and
test to see if it will float.
For
Social Studies, we ended our cultural community unit. Thank you for letting
your child bring their cultural treats to share with the class and help them
with their cultural book. It was really nice to see that everyone got to learn
about each other`s culture.
For
Religion, we are about to prepare ourselves for Communion. Your children have received
their First Communion books. A letter will be going home soon regarding what needs to be done at home.
Please make sure that your child has an extra pair of socks and mitts for recess and to
always have their snow pants.
Please continue to check your child’s
agenda for homework and make sure to sign it every day. If you have any
questions or concerns you can email me at christinesimbulan23@gmail.com or
call me at the school.
Many Blessings!
