 Happy Friday!

 

Announcements:

- I will update Power School with grades and comments this weekend. Please take a moment next week to look at your child's progress and let me know if you have any question. Please sign and return the green evaluation folder on Tuesday if not already done.

- Students who did not finish their map of Canada will need to complete it at home next week. This is due on Friday, October 16.

-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.

- We are starting our new unit on multiplication and division. This week, students need to practice their  multiplication tables of 1, 2, 3. They should also learn the corresponding divisions at the same time. Ex: 2x3=6, 3x2=6, 6/2=3, 6/3=2

-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.

-The library is open! This year, students will be able to borrow books from the library by ordering their books online, thanks to Mrs Fitz! There will be no class time to order books; students should do this at home. Here is the link to order your library books:
