Dear Parents/Guardians,

For home learning in math, I ask for students/parents to check this page daily. Here, students will find posts to help guide their learning in completing their math package. Aside from completing the sheets from their learning packet, I ask for students to practice their mental math facts to 12 each day for a minimum of 10 minutes. This can be done through interactive games, flashcards, card games, etc. I also encourage students to login to the Mathletics program daily, as students will find assigned questions individualized for them. Students should also visit our Dreambox site where they will learn and grow at their own pace. 

For today’s lesson (Jan 11th), I ask for students to watch the following video (https://www.youtube.com/embed/14vB4T70P3Q) as a review before completing the first 4 sheets (double-sided) of their math packet. These sheets are on writing numbers in word form and standard form (numerical form).

Note: In this video, they use the word "and". Students are reminded to NOT use the word "and" when saying or writing numbers. We will save that for when we get into decimals :). 

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions at all.

Sincerely,

Ms. Jillian Girouard

Our Christmas concert will be recorded tomorrow :). Please have your child bring a Santa hat, however; if you do not have one kickin' around the house; No worries! I have plenty to spare!

If your child hasn't already done so, I ask him or her to please return their library books before they kick off their Christmas break :D!

Friday is PJ day! GG is asking all students to bring in a loonie. All donations will be given to the Miramichi Youth House.  

Thank you and have a great day!

Good Morning,

I have assigned review questions for students on Mathletics. I am available all day if you or your child have any questions at all. I will also post this on our "Mathematics 5" team page and my teacher page. Thank you for your continued support. I know these are not easy times.

Good Morning!

For today in math, I have assigned questions to students on Mathletics. I ask for students to log on for a minimum of 20 minutes. Students may choose to go on Mathletics or Dreambox.

We have begun our fractions unit this week. I will post below some fun games students can play to solidify their knowledge.

Please remind your child to refer to their Rounding Rules when completing their tasks on Mathletics. See attachment below :).

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Welcome to our first day/week of home learning. I hope you all had a spooktacular Halloween. I know this isn't quite what we expected but we got this! We are in this together! <3.

Earlier in the year, I sent students home with their login information for Mathletics and Dreambox as resources for Math. This week, your child can practice concepts we have learned by visiting these programs. I recommend for students to practice concepts for a minimum of 20 minutes per day on Dreambox/Mathletics or both! I also encourage students to practice their math fact fluency daily for a minimum of ten minutes. Students can practice their facts by visiting www.multiplication.com. Throughout the week, I will also be posting some fun multiplication games students can play at home.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions at all. I hope we are all back together in person soon!

Sincerely,

Ms. Girouard :)
