Hello parents.
Although short, last week was very productive. Intramural soccer began last Tuesday. There are four different teams competing during lunchtime. Ask your son or daughter which team they are on and how they did last week. Students also completed a sewing project and did an amazing job. If you get a chance, pop by the classroom to take a look at the pumpkins, ghosts and spiders. Thank you to the parent helpers, Lindsay, Giacinta, Ericka, Jeni-Lynn, Muriel, Teslaq, and Belinda. Your presence and assistance made the sewing so much easier for all of us.
Here are the events and reminders for the week:
F.S.A.: Grade 4s will be participating in F.S.A. testing. Grade 5s will also be participating in some assessment activities during that time.
Math: With Mrs. Brown, this week we will continue to work on ordering and comparing large numbers.
With Mr. Lurie, students continue to learn about measurement. Students did excellent work with perimeter and will work begin solving area problems. Afterwards, they will make a poster to show their learning.
Writing: This week we are working on writing stories about monsters created by the students.
Reading: Students will continue to use their abilities to look for clues in non-fiction reading passages to answer questions specific to the text.
Socials Studies: The class will continue lessons on the Early European Explorers.
Science: This week they will continue to look at the five senses humans use. (How living things sense and respond to their environment.)
Art: This week we have guests coming to the school to perform in a play called, "Blue Beads and Bluebirds" during our art time.
