Week starting March 16th, 2020

Another week behind us. Its hard to believe that we are already into the second half of Quarter 3.

Wow, wow, wow! The children have produced such amazing Important Building projects! They have a great understanding of why different buildings are important. Thank you for continuing to support your child with these projects.

In Literacy, we are continuing with our Opinion writing. The children have been fascinated learning about the opinions of the different crayons in “The Day The Crayons Quit”by Drew Dewalt. This week we will be focusing on some grammar work – specifically past, present and future tenses. There will be a spelling test as usual next Friday, March 20.

The kids loved the Toy Museum and did well identifying the different types of motion: straight, circular and back-and-forth. Next week we will continue to investigate how objects can move in different ways and how they may vibrate and produce sound.

We have had fun making clocks in class this week and will now continue to practice telling the time to the hour and half hour using analog and digital clocks over the next 2 weeks. To consolidate our Calendar work, homework this week is an activity on the month of March. Each side is to be completed on a different day. You can ask your children questions such as: How many Mondays in March? What day of the week is March 4th on? etc.

I absolutely loved hearing all about your occupations. Your kids are so proud of you all. For Show and Tell next week, anything starting with ‘D’.

In Bible next week, we are focusing on Caring For Others. We will be doing the Bible story ‘Jesus heals the paralyzed man.’

Please remember its a half day Friday March 20th. Children must be picked up by 12:30pm. There is no after school care on this day.
