4 day week ahead of us, so I'm going to try and keep this short :) Please check you child's reading bag tonight, as I sent home a letter outlining they next few weeks at school. I also sent home a green sheet concerning parent teacher interviews. Please sign and send back as soon as possible.
Today we visited the Book Fair. You may/may not notice a wish list of sorts in your child's reading bag as well. We will be visiting the fair again on Wednesday morning if you choose to send money to purchase a book.
Tomorrow, GG will be hosting the STEM Science Fair. We will take some time out of our busy schedule to go visit the display's in the gym.
Our week will have an Easter theme to it. Reading, writing and art class will incorporate new vocabulary and text around Easter.
As far as Math goes, please ensure pages 44 and 45 (last week's homework is completed as soon as possible) I assigned page 53 (subtraction of 2 digit numbers) for homework this week. Some of their questions require them to regroup a.k.a. "borrowing"/exchange from the ten's position for 10 units. Some students did not quite yet grasp this, and it will be the focus of my tutorial TOMORROW at lunch seeing that we have no school on Friday. It will be due Wednesday. If anything, the previous page in their duo-tang provides examples of what we practiced in class, and the expected manner of solving these particular questions.
Cheers! Happy Easter :)
