Hello parents! Your children have been working hard at speaking in French, with many reminders. I am REALLY going to insist more and more that they try to do so, with the odd recess with me if they need many more reminders than the average student.
We have been focusing on Iqaluit in social studies. We talked about how the land is rocky and rolling hills, small trees, small houses on stilts because the hard uneven ground. We spoke about how Inuit people have dark hair and eyes and dress in traditional parkas made from animal skins and furs. Check out the bulletin board outside the room!
We are gearing up for Iqaluit Day, in February. We will continue to learn about the traditions/culture of the Inuit of the North until that day.
In science, magnetism! Attraction/repulsion, north/south, uses, applications, etc.
I assigned a short English reading and some writing for homework. Please ensure your child completes it and brings it back tomorrow.
Cheers,
