November 14

We have been working on putting sounds together to spell words. Example: b and ien, together make bien. They have a sound sheet that they are to use when writing and we are trying to get used to it.

We went to the library this morning. I have been having the kids keep their books at school and they read them during DEAR. Some kids have overdue materials. Please see that any library books are returned tomorrow. There are students who aren't allowed to take out books because they have up to 4 overdue at home.

They ran hard in gym class before we did a reading/comprehension activity. I have sent home the reading and would like your child to read to you and explain what it's about.

We had reading buddies with our friends in grade 6 near the end of the day. They helped us with our reading and comprehension, as well as, understanding and answering the comprehension questions.

If you have been listening to your child read their At-home reading French books and the kids are reading the books 3 times over 3 nights, thank you soooooooo much. It will pay off. It already is with some:)
