WEEK 7

Well, I hope you're all enjoying (or have enjoyed) a great long weekend!

This week the sounds we will talk about are b, ai (as in aim), and j.

 Our tricky words are at and that.

 On Tuesday, October 15th, we will practice our Lockdown Procedure in school. During this practice, we lock our door, turn off the lights, close the shade on the window, and wait (I always read a story) quietly around the corner in the classroom until an administrator or an RCMP officer comes to the door, knocks, and gives the word that all is safe. We practice this just in case there is a threat in the school building - I give the children the example of a mean dog that gets in the doors. Someone may bring up the scenario of someone with a gun, and I also discuss this at the children's level of comprehension, so as not to scare them. We all need to be aware of the possibility of such an event - even on Grand Manan.
