Hello Everyone!

MATH:  Yesterday, we had a really thorough review of multiplication and division and with your review at home over the weekend and last night, we should be good to go today on our test!  Our next juicy unit is on MONEY!!  Looking forward to developing your child's concepts of the value of money and how to count it correctly, make change, etc.

Language:  This week's quiz in language will be focused on nouns/adjectives/verbs/plurals.  Be on the lookout for your child's yellow duo tang for review.


Drama:  Soon we will be rehearsing for our upcoming class play 'Homophone Hubbub".  Ask your child what this is all about!

Music:  Please remind your child to keep their recorders in their backpacks so that they will always be ready to play.

Visual Arts:  We will be taking a closer look at how to create texture in our art work.

Social Studies:  We continue to enjoy google slide presentations from both grades on Country Study and Land Regions of Ontario.  Parents, after your child presents, please sign and return rubric in their green social studies duo tang.

That's all for now,

Coach Wilson

SECRET QUESTION:  How are these fact family numbers related?  3, 5, 15

Social Studies Google Slides Presentations: 

First of all, BRAVO to Lea, Emily and Jocelyn for grabbing the bull by the horns by volunteering to present first on Thursday!  Terrific start!  I gave written feedback right on their slide presentations in the comments section.  Please read. I will also send home the hard copy of the rubric for parents to sign.  I hope you parents were as impressed as I was at their ability to navigate mytools2go using Google Classroom and Google Slides!  By the time these students reach grade 6 they will be presenting professionals!  Presentations will continue Monday.

This week...

Monday - Review Math for test on Tuesday. Homework this week is THRoW.  This will be the third time for writing a Compare/Contrast Paragraph.  This should be their best one yet with all of the feedback given in the past two!  Looking forward to reading them!  Remember, you can compare and contrast ANYTHING from people to places to sports or anything two things you want!  Try to brainstorm really good similarities and differences to make it interesting.

Thursday -   Gr. 3 Trip to St. Clair for Dental Hygiene Screening/Education.  Mrs. Ferrato and Mr. Dennis will chaperone all of the grade 3s for a morning-only session at the College.  All students will attend, but only those who gave written consent will be screened.

Friday - Language quiz on verbs (including nouns/adjectives/plurals)

That's about all for now...
