Good Morning!

A huge congratulations to Mason and his mom and dad who welcomed a new addition, Easton to their family last week!




Literacy:

M and W scavenger hunt!  Using mom or dad's iphone or camera, take pictures of everything you can find that start with the /m/ and /w/ sound.  Can you find more items that start with /m/ or /w/?  Send me a collage of your photos OR send me your favorite pic!  You can always print off your photos and glue them into your visual journals too!



Math:
Let's follow along with Ms. Konno as she teaches us how to make an origami house.  You will probably need some help with this! Remember to start with a square sheet of paper.  If you don't have a square sized paper, Ms. Konno will show you how to make your rectangular piece of paper into a 
square!

Now that we have the house, let's listen to the story of The Napping House and then I will give you your task!

My name is Kate, and I am friends & workmates with Lindsey Tsang, Sophie’s mom. 
Our children are also friends, so my daughters Hannah and Olivia were thrilled to receive Sophie’s Love Button, and to have the chance to pass along their photos (and their love :). 
The button will be travelling to BC next, so stay tuned!

Thank you for helping our children understand the importance of spreading love and kindness.
