Another 5 day week is upon us! This week there are Parent/Teacher Interviews on Tuesday and Wednesday. Students are asked to attend these with their parents.
Lice Busters will be coming in on Tuesday to check the students. If you have returned the pink form, your child will not be checked.
Popcorn Wednesdays will begin again this week. Popcorn is $0.50 per bag and they will receive it at snack.
Friday is McDonald's hot lunch, spelling test, and October Scholastic Book Orders are due.
Language Arts
This week we will be working on our writing with a focus on 'Autumn Days'. We continue to discuss the difference between Expository and Informative writing.
Spelling test is this Friday. Please find the words under the "Spelling Words" tab.
On Wednesday, we will try our first 'Story Prompt'. Students will receive a picture with a 'starter sentence' and have free write time. This sparks a creative side of the students, and we will develop their skills over the course of the year.
Math
Our focus this week is on patterns that appear in every day sights, and extending those patterns.
With Numbers to 100, we will be looking at objects that appear in groups of 2, 5, and 10. We will then take those objects and find easier ways to count them.
Science
We are almost done our Magnets unit and are testing the magnets to see how many paper clips they hold. We are discussing predictions and observations with regards to science experiments/test.
Social
We have started to talk about the 3 areas of Canada: Meteghan (Nova Scotia), Iqaluit (Nunavut), and Saskatoon (Saskatchewan). We will be looking at these 3 communities throughout the year.
