Week of Jan. 18 multicultural lunch

Dear Parents,

In follow up to the recent Brooksbank Bulletin, a reminder that this Wednesday is our school wide Multicultural Potluck lunch. If you are able to send your child in with something to share from your family background, that would be lovely. If so, feel free to help your child share a few words on what it is.

In past experience, students have been asked to come in with utensils and a plate, so I recommend that just in case.

If there is a parent interested in helping out in the classroom at lunchtime on Wednesday, please let me know.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kam

Jan 18 week

Dear Parents,

Children have been enjoying our time for gymnastics with our leader from Gymsense. I have previously posted a few pictures.

Guided Reading- please continue to support your child by signing their completed guided reading homework and having them bring it back to be checked.

Math- please reinforce at home the following adding and subtracting math concepts with your child: grade 1- here is an example of a page we just did involving figuring out whether to add or subtract, by how much, and also matching the amount in the r

Ten frames eg. 4 _  _ = 9

Grade 2- recognizing that if 4+3=7, then 7-4=3 and 3+4=7

Please let me know of you have any questions.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kam

Week of January 4, 2016

Dear Parents,

     Welcome back! It was great to see familiar faces today and looking forward to seeing those that we missed. Mother Nature continues to bring us winter weather! Although the snow will likely be short lived, it is still chilly out so please continue to help your children dress for the weather.

Spelling- grade 1's got their list today; grade 2's will start tomorrow as we were fortunate enough to have a guest in the school today working on some dance with all of the classes

Gym sense- students are bringing home a notice today in regards to the the gymnastics we will be starting tomorrow. Please return the $10 and permission form as soon as possible.
