COLOURFUL HOMEWORK - 2 SPELLING GROUPS
You will notice that the front page of the homework packages are coloured this week. I have divided the class into two spelling groups. The yellow group is a continuation of the spelling work that the class has used so far this year during January. The blue group has a more challenging word list (10 words and 2 sentences). I divided the group based on reading level and the ability to complete work and spell independently. If your child is ever finding these new words and homework frustrating and too difficult, please let me know and they can switch groups. We did have a talk today about how everyone is reading at their own "good-fit" level and that spelling is the same thing. I like the children to be successful and to do well with their homework and spelling.
VALENTINE'S DAY
Our Valentine's Day Party will be on Thursday, February 14 in the afternoon. The children usually bring Valentine cards to give to each other during the party. If you are sending cards, please make sure that everyone in the class receives a card from your child.

MUNCHTOPIA
Last week we had a group come in from PTE to perform "Munchtopia" at our school. It was a combination of 5 different stories by Robert Munch. The children really enjoyed the show.
