Busy Busy Bees!!

Wow!  This week has flown by and we have been extremely busy learning and having lots of fun too!  Here are the highlights:

You and Your World

  • We have been learning about our NEEDS and WANTS and the difference between the two.  It has been a great learning experience.  They now know that video games and iPhones are not NEEDS because Mrs. Tingley didn’t have them when she was a girl and still made out just fine!  I found it quite comical listening to their rationale as to why we “need” these things.  It was priceless. 
  • ​We have also been learning about fire safety and this was highlighted by a visit from Tilley, the fire dog from the Fredericton Fire Department.   She taught us how important it is to test our smoke detectors and have a family meeting place in case of a fire.

This week, we have continued on with our Jolly Phonics letters and sounds with Rr and Mm.  We have also learned about syllables and had a lot of fun graphing the syllables in our names and we had fun counting syllables and building towers with Lego.   We introduced two new sight words as well - a and he.  Please continue to practice these words as well as our letters and sounds with your child.
