Happy Easter Long Weekend, Room 14!
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Please be sure to carefully read the school email sent to parents, with lots of important details about the play on Thursday.
Practice your songs at home please! The rehearsals are going so well and I am so excited for you parents to see the incredible performance!
Homework has been posted for next week. :)
Happy Friday, Room 14!
What a beautiful day, and what a fun week we had together! :)
Students in Room 14 are very enthusiastic and excited about the upcoming play, Willy Wonka! We will be continuing with important rehearsals next week. PLEASE continue to review and practice the songs at home any chance you get!

Mad Minutes were sent home this week. Take a peek and have a conversation with your child about how they are doing. In class we talk about strategies to help us succeed on Mad Minutes - skip questions that are really tricky, never spend time erasing an answer... just keep going as fast as you can! (it's fine to quickly cross off an answer and change it etc.) Memorizing is important, but we are also using different mental math strategies as we go.
This week we looked over all of our Addition results from Mad Minutes since January. Students plotted their results on a line graph, which made it easier to see trends. Students were able to see if they have been improving or not. We talked about goals for the end of April, and strategies to help us get there. Keep up the hard work, and practice!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Happy Friday Room 14!
We had a really busy and fun-filled week at school.
On Tuesday, students were lucky enough to do a special art project using wool! They look absolutely amazing and beautiful. Thank you so much to the volunteers who attended. I am so impressed with the finished products! Nice work everyone!
This week students worked very hard to create their year book cover to enter in the school-wide contest happening next Friday! The winning artwork will be chosen to be part of the Le Roi Daniels year book for the 2021-2022 school year! Wow!
The Willy Wonka school concert is coming up soon - April 21st. I attended Music class this week with my class, to see how we are coming along with learning the words to all the songs. Please please please - Take some time at home to practice the Grade 2 songs for the concert. This is especially important for students who don't feel confident with the words yet. Ask your child if they can sing the songs to you without the words... if not, take a look at Mrs. Hawkins' Music Blog (see Specialists tab above).
From the Music Blog page, you can find a tab titled Willy Wonka (the kids know where to find it!)
Thanks for your support!
NEXT WEEK - GYM IS OUTSIDE!
Have a fantastic weekend, everyone!
