 Dear amazing families,

This week we:

* Did KM club twice. We need to do 5 laps around Spencer Field to get a sticker. Some people have a lot of stickers.

* This week we did Social Studies. We are learning about our rights and responsibilities.

* We are doing gym this afternoon. We are going to play Treasure Island. We have fun in gym.

* We did writing every day this week. We do planning, then silent write, then work on write. We make a bunch of stories. When they are published we put them in the student author book bin. We also read our writing to the class. Some people do a lot of writing. When school is done, we will bring our books home so our families can see them.

* This week we did reading every day. You can only choose books in the morning, this is called "book shopping". We can only have 5 books in our book boxes... and only 2 chapter books. Some people use their chairs for shopping carts! We go to Mr. Marta's room for reading (except on Wednesday). We can have reading stuffies. At reading alone time, you have to read just-right books.

* We do "finishing" every day. It is when we finish the work we didn't get done. When you are done finishing, you get to do something quiet at your desk (like drawing, colouring, etc.) At finishing we might do math, art, social studies, science or other things.

* We do brain bins every single day. They have cars and fun building toys in them. One of them has fake money that we can sort. You can only do each brain bin once a week. There can only be four people at a brain bin. Each week we trade brain bins with Mr. Marta.

We have to go to reading now, even though we have more to tell you!

We'll be back next Friday with more!

From,

The epic students in Mrs. Marta's class.
