End of the Week October 21- 25

REMEMBER MONDAY IS PICTURE RETAKES


This week we have been doing lots of work with graphing in Math. Both grades have been exploring how to ask questions and record data using tally charts. The grade 3's have been looking into making pictographs using one-to-one ratios The grade 4's have been making many-to-one ratios with their pictographs and bar graphs.

During our reading time we have been continuing with our class novel and looking at the comprehension skill of visualizing. We learned that good readers make movies in their minds while they read to help them to understand. During our guided reading Mr. Pressey has been helping us to make connections, code break and summarize paragraphs. Keep up the great work that you have been doing with your home reading, last week was the best week that we have had all year.
We have finished writing our Talk For Writing defeating fear stories.  We are currently typing up our stories and adding pictures. Our goal is to share our stories with our kindergarten buddies next week. 

Our favourite thing to share is our art work. This week we followed the steps to draw a Frankenstein monster. We then used our creativity skills to make interesting backgrounds. Finally, we responded to art and gave compliments and constructive feedback to our classmates.

Good morning everyone, I am still in the process of calling everyone and letting you know your new Razkids' login and making sure that you are able to get onto Google Classroom. For the students that I have not called yet, you can go to your gmail and use the link that I sent you to join our Google Classroom. It has been great talking to you. It should be nice today so get out and enjoy a walk to the sunshine.

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.

Welcome Back April 6th 2020

Hi everyone, I hope that everybody had a wonderful break. I know that it was not as social as we would have wanted and the weather has not quite met my expectations of spring yet. But we are back! Over the next couple of days I will be contacting each of you to find out how your break has been and how your family is handling the new situation. I will also be asking you other questions: is anything that we can help you or your family with? can we help you get in contact with any community supports? what kind of computer access do you have? do you need paper learning packages? do you know your student email and log in information? do you need your passwords reset? do you need help getting onto D2L/ Google Classroom? is your guardian receiving emails? Once we have all of this information we will be in a much better position to help you learn from home. Thanks to the people who were checking the blog over the break.  For today I will be adding things to the...
