In Math, we finished up our multiplication and division unit and we are now working on geometry. Students are learning about polygons and 3D objects: pyramids, prisms and others (cone, sphere .cylinder). Students will describe these objects by determining how many faces, edges and vertices they have.   Please continue to review math facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.  We began our last science unit on Plants and soil. Students will learn the parts of a plant and the life cycle of a plant. Don’t forget that we will be going to Kouchibouguac on Friday for our end of the year field trip! Parents are welcome to join us at the Kouchibouguac Park.  We will be there around 9:45!

    In Language Arts and Science, we will wrap up our unit on Structures and Material.  Students learned about buildings, building materials and foundations.  They also learned what we must do to build a solid and stable structure. Students will build their own stable structure tomorrow by using newspapers and masking tape. They have been looking forward to doing so!       In math, we will be completing our unit on Fractions. Students learned how to name, identify and represent equal parts.  They can also name fractions of a whole.  We will be starting our Multiplication and Division Unit at the end of this week.   Please continue to practice times tables with your child up to 5X5. Students can also practice by using the math websites that I posted on our class webpage.
