Hello Families,
Room 9 has been working on our inquiry about earthworms. We have discussed our wonders about worms, what we know about worms, and the different parts of a worm. Today, we talked about the important role earthworms play in nature. You could ask your child "Why are worms so important to the earth, animals, and humans?"
In math, we have been looking at different types of patterning word problems. We have been exploring growth and repetition patterning with different attributes. We are applying our understanding of skip counting and recognizing the core of patterns to solve these problems.
We have been working on sensory words to add description to our writing. We brainstormed different words related to each of the five senses. We have been working on adding sensory words to their writing to make it more descriptive, using the computers to type it out.
You are able to see your child's work on Seesaw for some of the work, your child has been working on this year.
Reminders:
Friday, January 24 - Twin Day
Thursday, January 30 - Report cards go home
Friday, January 31 - No school for students

Netball
Lake Bonavista School is participating in Netball from February 3-7th in our gymnasium. This sport involves foundational movement skills such as jumping, running, throwing, and catching. As described on the Netball Alberta website (www.netballalberta.com): “Netball is an exciting, fast and skillful game of fair contest: It is a game in which two teams of seven players each strive to keep or gain possession of the ball. Players have specified areas in which they can move.”
Parent Council has graciously provided the funding to bring this event into our school.
Consent forms will be sent home in your child’s communication folder. Please sign and return the forms so your child is able to participate in this fun LBS event!
Thanks,
Active Living

Gymnastics
We will begin gymnastics in our regularly scheduled gym classes on Monday, January 6, 2020. The gymnastics unit will last approximately four weeks. Safety routines, cooperation and good sportsmanship are taught and reviewed in each class.
This physical activity opportunity will help students acquire individual skills through a variety of developmentally appropriate movement activities.
It is important for students to come to school prepared for being actively engaged. The following guidelines are very helpful…
HEAD TO TOE - READY TO GO!!!
Head ....................... long hair pulled back
Ears/Throat/Wrist ............... jewelry off
Shirt.................................. one layer shirt
Waist ................................................tucked in
Pants.........................sporty pants or shorts, no belts or zippers
Ankles..........................pants rolled up if ankles are covered
Toes...............running shoes, gymnastic slippers or bare feet (no footed tights)
“Playing & moving safely is everyone’s responsibility”
