Hello Parents.

Below are the details of classroom activities  and reminders for the week. 

Math With Mrs. Brown: We continue to work on on long division and are practising the steps to accurately compute a long division question.  Some of the students need to do a bit of extra practice on this and I will be sending their math books home over the weekend.  Please check in with your child and get them to show you the steps of long division.  I also encourage the children to go to the  KHAN academy website ( https://www.khanacademy.org/math/arithmetic/arith-review-multiply-divide/arith-review-multi-digit-div/v/long-division-without-remainder ) for a review lesson on long division if they need extra help over the weekend. With Mr. Lurie: We continue with our unit on probability and statistics. 
WritingWe have completed our poem compositions and each student will have an opportunity to choose their favorite poem and share it with the class.  Students are  also completing  the good copy of their Camp Imadene writing piece and poster.   In addition, students are working on completing their good copies of their Women in History essay.  
Reading: We continue to work on our Reader's Theater where students will perform a read aloud play in groups. Performance date will be on Tuesday June 5th at 1:55 in the classroom.  We are also beginning reading assessments for term three.
