HI Everyone,
I hope you all had a restful couple of days off with your family. I had a good convention and attended some great sessions. This year I chose to attend ones that focused on students mental health and the effects of anxiety and learning. It was very informative!
This is another short week packed full of activities. This week at school we will celebrate Carnaval. They are still looking for volunteers on Thursday morning and afternoon. They are in desperate need as last I heard. If you are interested you can let me know or the office and Ill be sure to pass the message onto the committee. Wednesday will be opening ceremonies and the duo French group Folkfolie is here to perform. Thursday we are suppose to have activities all day (depending on volunteers) this is also cabane a sucre.
In class, we are getting in the last couple quizzes before report cards, working on completing reading evaluations and finishing up odds and ends. We will continue to work on or I should say start learning on the different parts of the home. Students are starting to understand what makes up a sentence and are beginning to be able to put a sentences back together after it being mixed up. This is a great activity to practice at home to work on word recognition and comprehension. You can use sentences from their reading packs.
A note about the reading packs....today new books went home. This program oui, oui, oui comes with a CD that you can keep at home until June. All the books are on it. The numbered books correspond with the numbers on the CD. Please be sure to count the puzzle pieces before returning, to make sure you have not lost any at home. If you have any questions about the program feel free to ask me. If you haven't already sent back the pink book level A, please do so. If you haven't gotten a CD and new book, it is because I am still waiting your deposit. When you are able please send it in so that we can give your child their new resource.

Please be sure to review sight words on a regular basis, some of our students are still having trouble identifying simple words, such as "la", "les", "ma". I have registered our class on Lalilo website under my name (Mme Laurie Anne) The password is ABZRSC. I know what your thinking lol another website but its optional, take a peek it may help your child with letter recognition, blending letters together and French phonemes. Let me know your thoughts and if its worth it. Below you can find two links I didn't know which one would get you where you needed.

Parents I need your help with a class project that we do for the month of March. The theme for March is traveling with my friends. Each year our class asks our friends, family, friends of friends and family to send the class a post card from wherever they are living, traveling. We also ask those friends to ask their friends or family to do the same. One the post cards they can tell us a little about where they are from, whats the weather like, any famous landmarks, what language they speak, food they eat, traditions, population, animals, music and how they get around. Pretty much include anything a 6 year old would find interesting. Once we receive the post cards we find the place on the map, talk about how we could get there from Calgary and compare the information to our living. If you could please send word now to your friends and family far and wide that would be amazing, they can start to send the post cards in now. In the past we have received maps, tourist guides, stamps and flags from different countries. The students love this project. It also helps them realize that the world is more than just Calgary, Alberta. A huge thank you in advance!!!!
They can send their post cards to:
La classe de Mme Laurie-Anne
Holy Name School
3011 35 street SW
Calgary Alberta
