Monday September 21, 2015 PICTURE DAY TOMORROW!!!

Highlights
Today we were practicing the sounds associated with “j” and “k”.  We interviewed a student to find out more about them in Social Studies. We played a game of soccer in gym today! 

Needed from Home
******Please send your child with a pair of their own individual earphones labled with their name.  We will be using these daily at our literacy centres.  Due to health concerns every child will require their own set of headphones. Thank you to those who have brought yours in! 

We are also collecting water bottle lids.  Please send in any that you may have.  Thank you!!!

To support children in becoming knowledgeable readers, the most important thing parents can do is to read aloud to their children and talk about what has been read. This nightly process supports children in developing oral language skills (the ability to talk in a fluid and understandable manner), comprehension (understanding what has been read), and sparks enthusiasm toward the act of reading. We created this downloadable document to support parents in identifying the expectations for readers during their years at PHS:
