A new week begins after I hope was a peaceful and relaxing break for everyone.  We will be finishing our study of Fairy Tales and beginning a unit on Robert Munch in the near future.  I am looking forward to his stories and the engagement of our students.

It has been cold out. The kind of days we like to stay indoors and read a book.  We have been reading about Fairy Tales.  Last week we read; The Three Little Pigs, The Three Billy Goats Gruff, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  This week our stories will be Hansel and Gretel, The Gingerbread Man, and a different version of the Three Little Pigs. We are also comparing the books to the animated versions on the Smartboard.

The weather has warmer up, but it is still winter and that seems appropriate with the Snowmen at Night book we are reading.  A snowman is found to be a little different in the morning and a boy wonders what may have causer the change.

Happy New Year.

Welcome back to a new year here at EES2 St. Matthew. I hope everyone had a restful break. We will be starting the year with the theme of snowmen. Somehow that seems appropriate given the weather outside.

Holiday's are almost upon us. We have been busy these past few weeks; singing, working with our "Best Buddies", crafts, stories, and trying to keep up with the season.
So to all our friends have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR.

It is the third week of Advent.  It is hard to believe how fast the year is going.  We enjoying singing; "Rudolf the Red Nosed Riendeer", "Frosty the Snowman", "Silent Night", and others.  We have been working with our "Best Buddies" on classroom decorations, and getting to know each other. I hope the season is going well for you and we are looking forward to the next few weeks.

Second week of Advent and Best Buddies

The Advent season is well underway and our EES2 class is enjoying singing the songs of the season and doing some crafts.  Our Best Buddies have been active in our class now for some time.  I have sent home the consent forms for this organization.  Please go over the form and return it as soon as possible.
