Dear Parents,
Whew ! What a fun and busy week we have had.
Today the students had a great time at the National Gallery, they were given a guided tour of the photographs of ‘yesteryear’ Cayman and then made a piece of ‘turtle art’. A big THANK YOU to our drivers and helpers – Marlene, Renita, Jessica, Morag and Nettie.
The students have completed the Math Chapter on Add and Subtract Decimals and Whole Numbers and will be taking a Math Test on Tuesday 22nd October.
We will also be skyping with a class from Providence Rhode Island on Tuesday as part of our Global Read Aloud connection.
Mid term break is Wed 23rd to Fri 25th Oct.
Please ask your child the following questions over the weekend to help reinforce our class time –
1. Explain compensation – how would you use compensation to add 57 + 23 mentally ?
2. What is your favourite part of the novel ‘Out Of My Mind’ so far ?
3. Which endangered animal are you working on with your partner ? What do you know about why that animal is endangered ?
Thanks as always for your cooperation in the education of your child,
Janine Nyyssonen
