Words of the week!

The new words are:

dans, froid, enfants, si, de

You should also be aware of a rule for all Dewson students that was announced last week. Dewson is asking that home toys be kept at home, and school toys be left at school. For our class, I think this rule will really help us stay on task when unpacking and packing our bags in the morning and in the afternoon. If your child is bringing something for daycare that's fine, but the toy should stay hidden in his/her backpack. I will start keeping toys brought into class overnight to help reinforce this rule. We were reminded today, so it shouldn't come as a surprise!

With our reading buddies today, our students had the chance to practise reading their own "Citrouiville" stories in French - it's not easy to read and remember all the words. I know your children are eager to bring their stories home to share with you, so they will do so once they have a little more practise reading them in French, and once we've had a chance to share them with each other. Ask your child how much of his/her story he/she is able to read after practising today!

Don't forget tomorrow is your last chance to donate pennies! Also, Scholastic is due Thursday and Friday is a PA day.
