Friday May 2

This morning we went out and started prepping the school garden for planting.  We did a perplexor in math today.  We also did a fast facts practice.  This will be happening weekly for the next five weeks.  After six weeks of data, we will graph our individual progress.  The students were given 5 minutes and 100 multiplication questions to answer.  We talked about fun ways to practice these facts at home, like playing Math Snap.  Please remember when playing Math Snap with your child that you are giving them a bit of think time (minimum 3 seconds) before you are answering, until they are feeling more confident with their answers.

Homework:

 - home reading

- fast facts

 - grade six band Monday, bring instruments 

Have a great weekend!

September 4 - Welcome Back!

Today we reviewed our RoaRS expectations and made flowers to contribute to our school mural.  Some of the grade fours started doing bead chains.  We also did a Get to Know You Bingo to make connections with our classmates.  Agendas will be coming home soon!

We did our fast fact practice again today.  I was VERY pleased to see an improvement in almost everyone from last week!  This afternoon we continued working on our vanishing point art.  Due to the many absences in the classroom today we decided to wait until Monday to do our Word Study Dictation. Homework:  - home reading  - word study if not complete  - core competencies if not complete Have a wonderful weekend!  Happy Mother's Day on Sunday!

Well, unfortunately I was home sick today and did not get to have the goodbye I would have liked with the students today.  I hope that everyone has a wonderful summer.  I look forward to seeing all of the children in September!
