Reminder please send your child with running shoes to school. We take many brain breaks throughout the day where we do exercises or run laps. Running shoes must be at school for our P.E. days.
REMINDER:
Spelling: Spelling unit 4 this week. Remember your child should do one page a day for homework. Currently there are too many students not handing in their spelling work on Friday!
Remember each spelling unit is due Friday morning and we will have a short spelling quiz in the morning.
If students are absent on Monday morning it is their responsibility to get the spelling unit and return the work to the class.
In math we are learning all about modelling numbers using base ten blocks. It is very important at this stage that students know place value (ones, tens & hundreds place). Students are moving towards borrowing/regrouping three digit problems. Please practice skip counting...it is a skill that is extremely beneficial for mental math & can easily be practiced at home. Skip count with your kids as you walk down the street: "Lets skip count by 3s! 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24....".
In S.S. we are continuing to learning about different shelters used by the indigenous groups in Canada. In Health and Career we will be starting our food group unit. Reading assessments will begin this week!
Library books are due back by Tuesday or Wednesday morning...please make sure your child has returned their books back each week. Thank you for your assistance!
