One thing that we started was a class deal that if we get twenty marbles we get a class bonus. If we help others or are kind. If we show good leadership and respect then Mr. Pressey will give us a marble. Once we get enough we will vote on an activity.

During Social Studies we continued to do animal research on mind maps. Last we we brainstormed questions to help guide our research. This week we used our mind map note taking to take notes about the food, body, habitat and life cycle of different Canadian animals.

We started playing badminton in gym we learned how to serve and pass back and forth and we counted to see how many passes we could do before it hits the floor. A few days back we started doing badminton games we played each other to see who can keep it in the air longest.

We started doing harder math this week. We were practicing our 9 times tables. We learned how we can use our fingers to figure out our nine times tables up to 9 x 9. We also found out that all of the answers for our nine times tables add up to 9 when you add the digits together.

Good morning everyone, I just wanted to remind everyone that we are having our first Google Meet tomorrow at 11 am. If you have not been able to log onto Google Classroom please contact me and I will try to help out however I can. To get onto Google Classroom log onto your student email in the same way that you would get onto Google Docs at school. I should have sent you a class invite. Remember this week we are using Raz Kids for Reading and Prodigy for Math and it would be wonderful if you were practicing your multiplication facts. Grade 3's need to know up to 5 x 5 and the grade 4's need to know up to 7 x 7. We will be using these skills next week when we begin using Google Classroom. Have a great day.

March 15 Remember parents please book your parent teacher conference. You can do this by going to https://sis.cbe.ab.ca/public/home.html This week we continued to develop our engineering skills. We were designing our blue prints for our final bridge building activity. We were thinking about how shapes and materials will make our structures stronger. It was also important to think about how we could design using tension and compression. We have been exploring subtraction with regrouping again since it has been a long time and we were having some trouble remembering how to do it. We set a goal of getting 16 out of 32 subtraction regrouping questions correct and we achieved our goal :) Grade 3 Home Practice Grade 4 Home Practice

Mr. Pressey
