Weekly Update

Inquiry – Congratulations to all children on a job well done in presenting their Power Point presentations! The parents and other class mates enjoyed learning about different aspects of Cayman and seeing excellent computer skills in action.  Math/Numeracy – we start our focus on Multiplication and Division.  A focus will be made on quickly and accurately recalling basic times tables of 2, 5 and 10.  Children will also start to develop strategies to solve more difficult times tables.Literacy – In Reading, we focus on determining fact from fiction.  In writing, we work on improving our expressive writing and recounts when writing within a short time frame.  Each writing period will start with a 10 minute speed writing session based on a topic given by the teacher.Homework – It seems that many of the children have forgotten the homework expectations for Grade 3.  I have told the children that Show and Tell will now be banned until all children remember to complete their Homework.  Can I ask that you and your child take time to review the homework page on this Blog to help your child remember these homework expectations.  Thank you for your help in this area.
