- LOTG is Thursday February 7th.
- Please sign your child's agenda. We are trying to get back into the habit of using our agendas. If every student has their agenda signed then they will earn a tasty treat! Hopefully we can get 21/21!
- No school Friday. Teacher's will be here for Professional Learning.
Classroom Learning:
- Writing: We have completed our informational books and are now moving into opinion writing. We will practice how to developed well formed opinions and how to fairly judge things using categories. We hope to implement this unit across other curriculum as well.
- Reading: We continue to practice our reading comprehension skills as well as fluency in a variety of activities. One thing we are trying to push is the love of reading as well, you can support this at home by going to the library or encouraging reading in different ways. For example, reading with a flash light in the dark or reading in a fort that your child has built. Also, being read to is an excellent way to develop a love of stories and fluency!
- Science:
- Grade 5s have completed their burglar alarms and will now be focusing on building circuits into a moving vehicle.
- Grade 4s will continue to work on building devices that move using simple machines.
- Math: We are continuing to learn the basic facts of multiplication and learning a variety of methods to solve multiplication problems. There are some videos under our Math tab.
- Health: We are learning about how to establish new friendships and maintain health friendships.
Enjoy the weekend and please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Tom
