Happy Monday to all! It is hard to believe that we are already into our first week of February.
This week, we will continue our theme on winter. We will be filming our "Bonjour l'hiver" video on Thursday. I have attached the link on my page. Please practice at home if you have a chance. I would like (if possible) that everyone bring a scarf from home for the video. Friday, we will be "Skyping" with the immersion students from St. Andrews.
Valentines is just around the corner. We will be incorporating this theme as well into our weekly writing. The 14th is "Pink Shirt Day" at school. I was wondering if any parent(s) would be interested in baking some peanut-free goodies for the class that day? If so, please contact me :)
In math, we are learning to use rulers. We are studying length and height of objects in mm, cm and m's. Feel free to practice withyour child at home. It's also a great opportunity to throw in some addition and subtraction problems. With that being said, we practice our doubles up to 12+12 +/- 1, substraction and multiplication up to 5x5 daily. Please practice whenever you have a chance with your child at home. I use playing cards in class to help masters basic addition and subtraction facts. When it comes to writing problems out, I have your child use a number line and/or round each number out to the nearest whole number to find their solution i.e. 83+24 = 80+20=100 and 3+4 = 7 therefore the sum is 107. The same goes for substraction. We are striving for the most effecient solution and not necessarily the most effective. Please contact em if you have any questions?
In social studies, we are continuing our theme on New Brunwwick. This week we will see where we are situated in comparison to other Canadian provinces. From there, we will investigate where Miramichi and other NB cities are located.
Homework:
- read 15 minutes each night
- cursive writing litter Bb
- practice reading letter B sheet
*** Please return book bags each day to school***
Reminders:
Wednesday is popcorn day
Thursday is library day
Friday (fingers crossed) we will be skating from 9 - 9:45. Please remember to bring your helmets.
If you have any question, comments or concerns please contact me. We can make arrangements to speak if need be.
Cheers!

This week:
We will be continuing our theme on winter. Last
week we were able to write two pieces of writing pertaining to winter. One
piece was about winter activities and the other about hot chocolate. We will
continue working on the “organization trait” and implement as many “mots
frequents” (frequent grade 3 spelling words) and new sounds as possible in our
writings. Friday, we will also be Skyping with a grade 3 FI class at St. Andrew's. We will be writing our scripts this week.
I placed both the letter Dd and Pp reading sheets in your child’s trousse
de livre. Please ensure that they practice reading these sheets and their nightly book throughout the
week. PLEASE return their trousse de livre to school daily.
As for cursive writing, we practice the letter Pp today. Letter Pp is to be completed by next Monday.
In math, we continue to work with time and the calendar. We will soon be
learning about measurement. I must add that we practice adding and subtracting multiples
of ten i.e 54+33 and having students break down the question i.e 50+30 = 80 and
4+3=9 therefore 80+9 = 89 or by having students
add/subtract on a number line adaily during our
morning routine/message. We also practice multiplying up to 5x5. It would be beneficial to have your child either practice,
or you ask them random addition/subtraction and multiplication (up to 5x5) at home on a sheet of loose leaf, and see what they are able to come up with. If
you have any questions/concerns or would like extra math exercises, please
feel free to contact me. Every little bit helps. There are also numerous math
websites on the internet. Feel free to explore.
In social studies, we are exploring where New
Brunswick is in relation to North America.
We also took a virtual tour around various attractions in New Brunswick via Google Maps today in
class. Everyone enjoyed this activity!
Wednesday is Popcorn...don't forget your $0.50.
Thursday is library, don't forget your books!!!
IMPORTANT
INFO!!!
We will be
skating this Friday, February 1 from 10-11 am. Please make sure students bring
their skates and helmets. If you require skates or a helmet, please let me
know. If any parents or grandparents would like to come and help tie skates,
your help would be greatly appreciated.Today we
went to Carrefour Beausoleil to watch a French play. Stay tuned for pictures of
our outing.
Gretna Green is also selling tickets @ 0.50$ each for
a chance to win one of the two hockey jerseys. Cheers!
