As-salamu-alaikum wa Rahmatullah


Dear Parents,

I hope and pray that all of you are doing well, In shaa Allah. We had a wonderful week alhamdulilah!

This week was wonderful alhamdulillah!

Writing:  students had a chance to write in their journals about Kindness and responsibilities.

Islamic Studies:  in Islamic Studies we have been reading books to reflect on the past lessons.

Math:  students are 
exploring numbers from 1-30.  Students are printing numbers and number words.  We have been doing addition and subtraction stories.

Library:  students had a chance to go to the library and go over rules and routines.  Students are learning the different parts of a book.
Please make sure that your child returns their library books every Wednesday.

Science:  We are done for now.  We will be concentrating on Social studies.

Social Studies: we are learning about rules and responsibilities at home, school and other public places.

Spelling:  students have started to work on their workbooks we are going over the letters of the alphabet and phonetic sounds and recognising beginning sounds of words. Students will have their first spelling test this Wednesday November 2nd insha Allah. 

Physical education:  We have been starting our gym class with a warm up followed by an activity.  Students have been learning many of the safety rules for gym class and learning how to follow instructions during their class.
I have been taking time to discuss the importance of eating healthy.  Most students are doing excellent, and they understand the importance eating healthy food verses junk food.


Reminders:

Please have your child dress for the weather.  They should have a hat, gloves or mittens, neck warmer and boots.

This Wednesday students will have their first spelling. as well a field trip on the same day.  Please make sure your child brings an extra bag to put their books in as well as their library card if they have one. 

* From time time we have students who forget to bring in their lunch bags and need a snack.  I would like to have have a "snack bank" that we can keep in our class in case of emergency.   If you like to help you may send in cereal bars, cheese crackers, juice, cereal or any other non perishable snacks.
