Oct. 30th

 HALLOWEEN AT NORTHERN LIGHTS SCHOOL 

Classes will be fully engaged in regular learning activities tomorrow (Friday, October 31). If students are planning to dress up in a costume, it cannot interfere with their learning and must be comfortable enough for them to fully participate in the learning day. They may also wear black and/or orange, or just their regular clothes as costumes are most certainly not needed.

We ask families to please remember students MAY NOT:

            -   wear full face costume masks or parts of constumes that prevent them from writing / working

-   bring costume accessories (ie. weapons) 

-   spend instructional time putting on costumes or makeup 

-  bring candy, treats or other items to share with their peers or class.  (Any treats or candy sent with students to share will be sent back home.)

Oct. 29th

Everyone settled in today like we hadn't been gone and got right back into routine. We read a story about a pumpkin and then each of us used a four square planner to plan our own pumpkin story. 





In Math we reviewed all that we have learned about repeating and increasing patterns to get ready for our pattern project next week. 




We also learned about decreasing patterns and created our own using a variety of materials. 





We read this funny book!


Then we used the ideas in the book to help us think of ways we can be calm when we become dysregulated and added some of our own ideas. We are currently working on a visual journal page which we will share when we are finished!
