Welcome back to our last full week of March. I look forward to going outside in the near future for morning recess.

There will be a free breakfast this Thursday for all student in the cafeteria. Students will also be allowed to chew gum on Friday for $1 as a fundraiser to the grade 8 fieldtrip.

***Friday is also Jersey Day across ASD-N in support of Renous’s bid to win Kraft Hockeyville.

*** 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 entitled “Le printemps” Our animal and pet unit continues. This week’s goal will be write a rough copy based on our funny/weird animal drawing from last week. We will also have a French author visit Thursday. I look forward to her presentation.

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 focus on the 4’s this week. Our focus will be division this week. Next week will serve as a review and quiz. 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 - Our focus this week will be the importance of physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle.  

Social Studies - We will continue to 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 :)
