SK2 Updates!

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allah Wa Barakatuhu

Dear Parents,

Alhamdo-lillah, we had a fun filled field trip to "Cosmic Adventures". Everyone had a great time playing and socializing with other grades.

Language Arts: We covered two more letter sounds "P" and "N" according to Jolly Phonics. Please ask your children about it and watch as they make the sound and action. I encourage all parents to go to this website http://www.starfall.com/n/level-k/index/load.htm?f and please practice with your child the letters we learned so far. It's a great website to practice phonics!

Math: We did "one to one correspondence" in counting objects and matching group of objects.  Also, we did Math centers that cover lessons learned in Number sense and Numeration thus far. Students had a great time rotating between different centers and doing hands-on Math activities.

Science: We finished the "Fall Unit" in our science class by making a stained glass leaf craft. We made beautiful stained glass leaves using different colours of tissue paper. It was amazing to see all the creative colours chosen by the students to make their fall leaf craft.

Visual Arts: We did painting with marbles using the three primary colours. Students had a blast with the end result. They created their own designs by titling and shaking the marbles.

Islamic Studies: We started reviewing and memorizing the dua before entering and leaving the washroom.

Important Reminders:
  •  Please send back the Homework every Wednesday in your child's folder.
  •  Blankets are sent home to be washed every 3 weeks. We usually send the blankets home on a Friday so please don’t forget to send the washed blanket back to school the following Monday.
