Please Send Home Reading Back As Often As You Can!!
Ask your child about their new story writing piece. They have started to write their own Halloween/Haunted House stories. We are using our 5 senses to add details and juicy words to our work. On Friday we created our Haunted House settings to go along with our stories. Students are now working on using their 'Word Wall' lists to edit their own work.
Vowels are very important letters when learning how to read and write. Doing some extra review of the vowel sounds is a great way to help your child build their reading and writing skills. A reading strategy we use is 'Flippy Dolphin' he reminds us to try both the vowel sounds when decoding a new word.
If you are looking for some ideas to practice at home, I came across the following blog that has some neat printable games to play to practice long and short vowel sounds as well as blends and digraphs. I do not own the rights or have any say over the content or information found in the following blog.
In Math we will be starting to look at the 'Friendly Tens'. All the numbers that add to ten and their corresponding subtraction facts.

In Social Studies we have been learning about Saskatchewan and the prairie communities. We explored Saskatchewan's flag today and learned why the top is green and the bottom is yellow/golden. Please ask your child what they learned about the flag.
