January 9th-10th

January 9th - 10th

Welcome back everyone.

This week we started our new Math unit. We are learning all about subtraction and subtraction strategies. We need to make sure that we can use automatic mental strategies to solve problems up to 18. So that means we can solve 18-9 within 3 seconds mentally. So please practice at home.

We are also learning about strategies to solve subtraction up to 999 for the Grade 3's and 9999 for the grade 4's. We have been using think boards to help us out with that. Here is an example of a think board and a blank one to practice with.

Please remember that we have our It's a Crime Not to Read visit to the school on Tuesday so remember to return your books.

On Friday we continued our weekly drawing, creativity and response activity. The drawing was very challenging but we showed excellent perseverance and the response conversation at the end was wonderful. Have a great weekend and remember to dress warm next week.

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
