• We will be back at 1:00 so the kids will be able to eat their lunches when they return. Hot lunches will not be saved for them so make sure they have a lunch.
• Please bring a disposable snack for them to eat when they are finished at the CN tower before we go home.

Hello,

Here is what we did today.

Novel study: We started a new novel today! We started reading Stuart Little today and they were very excited. We read the first two chapters together. Next we did two worksheets. One in which they had to make a connection about themselves and another in which they had to make connections to another book.
French: Please see Mme. Stella's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess

Math: Today we started off with some mad multiplication minutes! They had two minutes for each side to do as many questions as they can. We are working our way up to do as many as we can. I have given the sheets to the kids to take home and see their progress. Today we practiced using a number line to do multiplication. They did very well.

If you would like to print off flashcards to practice mutliplication I think it would be a great idea. Here is a link in which you can print them off:

Hello,

Here is what we did today.

IB: We started off the day with the IB awards! Munira won the open minded award for our class! Great job Munira! Avaneesh also won the open minded award from Mme. Stella! Great work Avaneesh!



Pancakes: Then we had pancakes for pancake Tuesday! Here are some pictures of all of the craziness!

Language: Today we read a book called Thank you Mr Falker for our IB caring learner profile lesson. We talked about who was caring in the story and what would have happened to her if people caring! It was a heart warming story about a girl with Dyslexia. Here is a link to the book if you want to listen to the book!

Next we talked about text to self connections. We talked about moments when we felt like one of the characters and made connections to our self. We talked about it was important to make those connections while we are reading.
French: Please see Mme. Stella's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess

Math: Today we started working on multiplication!! They were very excited. Today we started talking about how multiplication is repeated addition and how it needed equal groups. We did some examples together on the carpet and then they did textbook work. They are all very excited!


UOI: We continued to work on our summatives.

Please make sure that the information your children are bringing in is not using very adult language. Some students are having a hard time understanding what the material means.

Lunch/Recess

UOI: Today we did our debate as a class! They did very well and came up with great arguments! We have some future debaters on our hands!

Have a great night!

Hello,

Here is what we did today.

Language: Today we talked about comparative adjectives and superlative adjectives. A comparative adjective compares two twos things together and ends in "er". We also talked about superlative adjectives. This compares two or more things together and ends in "est". We did a scavenger hunt in which they had to compare two things together and find the comparative adjective that fits the best.
Math: We started the math test. The tests will be sent home tomorrow.
French: Please see Mme. Stella's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess
