March 18th-22nd

Posted: March 18, 2019

Welcome back. I look forward to the first day of spring this Wednesday. A reminder to parents that there will be no school this Friday as it is a designated professional development day for teachers.

Elementary STEM Fair will be held this Tuesday afternoon at 12:45. Guest are invited to view the many projects created by students.

*** Please ensure white homework binders are brought to school on Mondays for student’s weekly work and that reading bags are brought daily for notices, handouts, etc.***

French - Our homework sheet for the week will be a review of last week’s “C’est mars” sheet. Our animal and pet unit continues. This week’s goal will be to create a unique animal of our own and describe its various features.

Guided reading will also take place with myself during our Daily 5. Whilst a group is reading, others will be working in various centers. Students will receive new book within a 4 day cycle to be brought home along with their new sound and song/poem sheet of the week. Please note that year end expectation for students is to be within the F-G-H range.

Math - We continue to practice our multiplication daily during our morning routine. We will continue with the 3’s this week. We will be transitioning over to division this week and reviewing the concept of division. Please feel free to go to Learn Alberta website found in my web links to practice various outcomes. Math Reflex is also another great resource that students have been practice here at school.

Health - Students will be creating a healthy super hero character with the remainder of our flyers. Students will be tasked with naming all the items used to create their character and what food group would be most suitable.

Social Studies - We continue to learn all about maps and how to read them with the assistance of cardinal points and a legend. We will also discuss the difference between an urban and rural community.

Please refer to our school website regularly for important information and postings. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at school. I will respond via phone call as promptly as I can. Let’s have a great week! Cheers :)

REMINDERS:

- Please do not forget snow pants and mitts for outdoor recess.

- March Scholastic orders will be due at the end of the month.
