Thursday February 5th

We did another round of explorer rotations.  Ask your child who their favourite explorer has been so far.  Most of the day was a work block day today.  Due to an increase in conversations in the classroom, many children will be bringing maps home to colour this weekend.  Please ask your child if they have a map to finish. Year fives have been working on multi step multiplication questions.  Please provide your child with a question a day to help them solidify this concept. Tomorrow is a Pro D day, no school for students. Homework:  - home reading  - map colouring  - word study nine if not complete Have a good weekend!
