THINGS TO TALK ABOUT OR ASK YOUR CHILD ABOUT THEIR
LEARNING AT SCHOOL THIS WEEK…..
· The IB word of the
week is INTEGRITY: How often does your child do the right thing
and is honest. Talk about examples. Praise your child during the times he/she
shows integrity.
· Land-forms – In class we are learning about land-forms. Land-forms are natural
physical features on earth such as rivers, valleys, oceans, hills, plains,
volcanoes, ponds, plateaus, bays, lakes, rivers, mountains etc. The students are very excited about learning
about land-forms and to many this is a new term. For a little extra – do some
research at home about land-forms. See
what facts you can find. Have your child draw a picture and label their land-forms.
· Weather – What weather patterns
and characteristics are particular to each season?
· -ch - We have been
searching for words inside their I-PICK books. Has your child been reading
his/her words to you at home? The students LOVE searching for words. Have your
child do this activity at home. Make a list of –ch words (beginning and
ending). I call them word detectives.
They love it.
· Skip counting – The
students are learning to skip count by 2s, 5s and 10s. Make sure you are
practicing at home.
· Copper the puppy –
What did your child tell you about Cooper?
· Groundhog Day - We
made predictions about Punxsutawney Phil and seeing his shadow. Watch the news Monday morning before school
and let us know your findings!
