Hello again!  It's a short week this week and that means we start off with a math sheet tonight!  It's review for the test which will be held on Tuesday Feb. 25.  This was a large unit on additon and subtraction with lots of strategies and steps to remember so we will spend the week reviewing.  Tonight they may choose any strategy they would like to solve the four questions on the page.  (Watch the signs though, because some are addition and some are subtraction!)In French class we are talking about the equipment on the playground, things we like to play on the playground and things we like to do in our communities.   This ties in with Social Studies, as we are looking at & drawing maps for our playground, school, homes, etc.  We will discuss legends required for maps while we work on this.*Book orders are due Feb. 24.*Friday, myself and a couple of other teachers will be cutting off our hair and collecting donations for the Canadian Cancer Society.*Keep an eye on the Olympics, Canada is doing amazing things & our class country of Norway is doing fantastic too! 

Back for another week! A fun one too! This week we have Valentine's Day (A class list went home today, for any who need one) and skating on Wednesday. French: We continue to work on various reading strategies, spelling, sounds and comprehension through 'Daily 5.' Everyday we read together, independently and with partners. We practice different sentence structures orally and in our writing each day. Students should read and record 1-2 books (some choose to take extras) in their reading logs each night. Please sign their log once they have read their book(s). Social Studies: We are continuing with our discussions about our surrounding & neighbourhoods while working on map reading & drawing, as well. Math: We are on our last two lessons for subtraction (Using mental math strategies to help find differences and working with 3 digit numbers.) Next week will be reviewing the addition and subtraction strategies and having the unit test late in the week. Math sheets Tuesday & Thursday this week.  Reminders- Book orders due Feb 26th- Skating Wednesday Feb 12 @ LBA 8:40 - 9:40am- Spelling words (comment, peu, homme, garçon, beau, chose, soir, matin, enfant, nouvelle) - Reading every night, math Tue./Thur.Happy Valentine's Day!   

For tonight's math sheet students have 4 subtraction questions to practice their strategies (whichever they choose).  Tuesday I had uploaded an example question using strategy #1 and now I am attaching strategy options 2 and 3.  Have a great night and spectacular weekend!
