February 12, 2013

Tomorrow we will skate from 1:30-2:30ish! I haven't heard from anyone that helmets or skates are an issue so hopefully we will all get to skate. Again, we are going to skate on Friday in the morning after recess, from 10-11.
Tomorrow is comfy wednesday! Sweats or leggings, cougar wear or any ol' comfy outfit. No pajamas please!
Today we read quit a lot. We read simple sentence books in French. I then asked the kids to give me 8 sentences that started with "Je peux..." or I can...  This was troublesome for the group. Please ask your child to write down 3-5 sentences that start with : I can... The point is not to have them write simple sentences that any ol' person can do. What makes them special or different from others. Can they play piano or violin? Can they run a 4 minute mile? This would be better than : I can jump. I can walk. I can run.

We are putting together a little book of 8 sentences with an illustration for each.
