Team 72 classmates can be good Friends

Dear Children and Families,

Good Friends

Friends are people who are kind and enjoy playing together.  Friends share things, but a good friend would never ask you to give them something so they will play with you.  If someone has asked you to give them something so they will play with you find another person to play with and tell a trusted adult.

We read to self and read to someone today.  Good readers reread and think about what the writers message is.  Ask me about the poster we read and tried to understand today.

During math we talked about strategies we like to use to help us subtract.  Ask me how I did on the adding and subtracting challenge.

Drumfit with Mrs Quilley and Mrs McBride is Awesome!

During social studies we talked about what people in the Atlantic and Prairie communities use the land for.  We learned the words farming, fishing and logging. 

Blog Question:  Have you or someone in your family visited a Prairie or Atlantic community in Canada?
