Hello everyone!

First I wanted to thank all the parents for coming and supporting G1 class for Language Festival, I like to think we finished on a good note last Thursday with the song Sugar, the kids were so excited! Also special thanks to all parents who brought snacks and new food to share with everyone, that’s what Thanksgiving is all about!

Today in Grade 1 we:

Math: Learned about corners and sides, compared shapes, colors and sizes and wrote our own problems for finding the hidden shapes!
