Hope this post finds you well!
The last couple weeks have been busy and exciting.
Grade 4's have been working on finding importance within texts, and we continue to read A Boy Called Bat together as a class. In math, we have been exploring money amounts, and using different strategies to solve addition and subtraction problems (number lines, hundreds charts, etc.). I challenge you to pick a dollar amount, and ask your child to "make change". We're getting quite good at this!
Grade 6's have been continuing to work hard on their narrative stories. We are all getting close to finishing and starting on the editing and revising stage. I'm really looking forward to reading them in full. In math, we are continuing to work on measurement, specifically, working on area and perimeter. Our focus right now if working on word problems and showing our thinking.
Upcoming Important Dates:
March 6th: Ash Wednesday
March 7th: Grade 6 Graduation Pictures
March 9th-17th- March Break (enjoy your time!)
