Hola a todos,

We will be learning about Remembrance Day this week. 

English:

• Letters we are learning this week: J, W, H, and WH
• Sight words: not, what, all, were, we, when
• Practice at home by having your child point out the words during reading time. 
• Practice at home by writing sentences with your child using the sight words. 

Spanish:

• We are practicing our questions and how to answer them in Spanish. 
• ¿Como te llamas tu? (What is your name?) Yo me llamo... (my name is) 
• ¿Como te sientes tú? (how do you feel?) Yo me siento... (i feel)
• ¿Cual es tu color favorito? (What is your favourite colour?) Mi color favorito es... (my favourite colour is)
• 
  

Math:

• We are practicing counting from 1 - 100 frontwards and backwards. 
• We are practicing skip counting by 2's, 5's and 10's.

• Dalhousie students will have the opportunity to participate in a 6-day dance residency at school. Sound Kreations will be coming to dance with the students on November 14, 15, 16, 17, 21, and 22. Our students will be participating in a program called CubaNYC where a Spanish speaking instructor will focus on teaching the students hip hop and Latin street dance moves. The cost of this residency will be $7.26 per student and is posted your MyCBE account.  We are excited to get our groove on, ask your child to see the moves they learned at school.
  
  
• The next set of Parent Teacher Interviews will be held on November 24 and 25.  Please watch for a separate email with information on how to book.
  
  
• Dalhousie will be hosting a Scholastic book fair in November, with a virtual and in-person option.  The virtual fair will be active from November 18  – November 28, 2022 inclusive. Please check out the virtual link to preview and explore the digital flyer!  Students will also be able to purchase books and other items (posters/stationary etc.) in school. We will be doing a preview for each class and then the following week students will be allowed to purchase items using cash. Previews will be held November 15, 16, 17, and purchasing will occur November 22, 23, 24.   Additionally, the book fair will be open for all families on November 24 from 5pm to 8pm to coincide with conferences.  You do not need to have a conference that evening to visit the book fair.
