Our New Pets and This Week in Room 109

It seems I forgot to mention our new pets!
A couple of weeks ago, we welcomed a few new additions to our class: Swimmy, Citrouille, Bob L'eponge and Nick- our goldfish. The children love to watch them, feed them and take care of them. They even remind me if I forget.


This week we have been talking about Remembrance Day and how lucky we are to have such a wonderful country to live in and how grateful we should be to those who fought for our freedom and peace.
Some of the words we have been learning to help us talk about this are:
Le Jour du Souvenir        Remembrance Day
Le coquelicot                     Poppy
Le soldat                              Soldier
Le vétéran                          Veteran
Le paix                                 Peace

We have also started to talk about 2-D shapes: where we see them, how we identify them and what we can make with them. In addition to this, the students have been working on their fine-motor skills by doing some sewing and letter work. They love the listening centre this week!

Les formes                          Shapes
Le carré                               Square
Le triangle                            Triangle
Le cercle                              Circle
L’ovale                                 Oval
Le rectangle                         Rectangle
L’octogone                          Octagon
Le pentagone                      Pentagon
L’hexagone                        Hexagon
