Brrrrrr! It's been quite the week of frigid temperatures in Calgary!! We made the best of the blue days with many body breaks! We hope everyone has been able to get back into routines after a great 2 week break!
This week we began with goal setting and thinking about how we can create our best selves at school and at home. Ask you child about their school and home goals!
Students are working on reading through small group targeted work, guided reading, reading comprehension skills and reading for pleasure. Students are continuing with Words Their Way personal words and practicing their editing skills in their writing.
