 Announcements:

 

- I updated Power School with grades and comments this week. Please take a moment to look at your child's progress and let me know if you have any question. I will send the green evaluation folder at the end of the month so that you can see and review the evaluations with your child. 

- Our FLA presentations on an organism of the wetlands will be next week. Please check your child's agenda for the date of their presentation. The good copy of the text along with the 3D creature are due on the day of the presentation.

-Students should read at home for a minimum of 15 minutes daily. I would encourage them to alternate between French and English books. Reading daily helps improve reading skills, boosts vocabulary and literacy skills and improves writing skills.

- This week, students need to practice their  multiplication tables of 4, 5, 6 at home. They should also learn the corresponding divisions at the same time. Ex: 5x8=40,  8x5=40,  40/5=8,  40/8=5. Please check Google Classroom for a document to help support your child in the section Supplementary Activities. This document includes strategies to memorize basic x facts, flash cards and exercises.

-Google Classroom is now updated daily as there are more students absent and for longer periods of time. In order to not fall behind, students are responsible for completing all assignments (to the best of their abilities in these circumstances) and submit them to me when they return to school.

-For daily announcements and homework, please check your child's agenda.
