Firstly, our warmest welcome to our new Savanna student and his family! You are just in time for our upcoming ISN Halloween Party. Also a big shout out to our September birthday boys… Happy 5th Birthday!!

Halloween is in the air… and ghouls, witches and crafts are in the making! Our Halloween Party song this year is Monster Stomp Around the House. Savanna transformed ourselves into witches – with our hats and flying broomsticks. At the same time, we reviewed properties of basic shapes. Savanna said, “rectangle… 2 long sides and 2 short sides. Triangles have 3 sides”. Someone added, “look our table… a rectangle”! Good observation. Savanna drew and cut out triangular hats and rectangular brooms. We were the cutest, loveliest bunch of witches!

For phonics, we had a letter hunt for Y which makes the sound /y/ as in yellow, yoyo, yes. We found many Ys in our classroom. We had Y in our names and in the classroom – calendar Monday, Tuesday… months January May. We discovered that the letter Y has different sounds and is sometimes silent. We worked hard and we played hard too. In the schoolyard, we had a tyre race and wow we were strong! We had fun in the park too. Till next week, take care and have a great weekend!
