Dear Parents,
The students will
be discussing family celebrations/traditions (such as celebrating Hanukkah or a
yearly summer trip to Mexico) for Themed Sharing next week. We will be
discussing how families can be similar and different. I understand that the
class brought in a family photo/drawing and a celebration/tradition related
item for Themed Sharing in December; however, as we near the end of our unit on
Family and Community, we will be doing a few culminating activities for which
your support would be greatly appreciated.
Part 1
Please discuss
a family celebration/tradition with your child and write down the main idea on the letter sent home. The
students will be drawing a picture about their family celebration/tradition on
a puzzle piece and sharing it during their Themed Sharing times during the week
of January 27th to January 31st. At the end of the week, we will have a
completed "Let's Celebrate Diverse Families" puzzle for the class.
Part 2
If you could
please send your child with a family picture, that you are okay with having the
faces cut out to make a family tree, that would be fantastic. You can provide a
photocopy of a family picture or your child can draw it. Please label on the
back/bottom of the picture the various members of the family (ie. child's name,
mom, dad, brother, sister, etc.).
Please hand in both parts (Celebration/Tradition
main idea & Family Photo)
by Monday, January 27th. Thank you for
your time and support!
Jeeniece Chand
