Hello families,

What have we been up to in Room 8? Well...

We've been celebrating National Metis Week by learning about Symbols of Metis Culture. Ask your child about the moccasin and sash artifacts that were brought into our classroom. 

We continue to explore student's Cultural Heritage by learning how to say hello in Michif, Cree, and French!

We have started the Second Great Lesson in our Montessori classroom. The students in Room 8 explored early ocean life including jellyfish, seaweed, sea sponges, and sea worms. The most recent demonstration was trilobites.

The students in Room 8 continue to learn about representing numbers to twenty using pictures, numbers, and words. The Grade 1s have began a Writers Workshop where they are following five steps to become a good writer. This math work and writing work will be sent home next week before conferences for your child to share with you!

More information about conferences will be sent in a School Messenger on Friday afternoon. 

Take care,

Mrs. Melindy
