Dear Parents,
What a busy and fun week we have had in Grade 5 ! The students completed Chapter 1 on Place Value in Math and also completed their first Science unit. We are celebrating completing our first two tests with cupcakes this afternoon 🙂 ( Thanks Ms Nettie )
A few students will be studying their Science paper to do a retake of the test on Monday.
In English the students have learned/ reviewed subjects in imperatives, simple predicates, conjunctions and writing good sentences.
Next week we start the Global Read Aloud adventure, please ask your child to show you the place on www.edmodo.com where they can log in and share thoughts with students form around the world. This is a moderated site so students can only post after it has been approved by a teacher, so all internet safety rules will apply.
Please ask your child the following questions to reinforce what was learned this week in class –
1. How did you do on the Math test ? Are there any areas of Place Value you still need further help with. ( they can let me know on Monday ).
2. What is the subject in an imperative sentence ? For example what would be the subject in – Take your books out.
3. How did God use certain people in Joseph’s life ?
Thank you as always for the cooperation in the education of your child,
Janine Nyyssonen.
