Feb. 13- 20


This week in math the students learned how to add and subtract decimal numbers. Students wrote a quiz on decimal numbers, which was sent home to be signed and corrected as much as possible. We will take it up next week.  

In language students continued to work on speech writing. Students learned the various techniques for writing a good hook, then practised writing a hook for their speech.  In guided reading we're practising making inferences and proving them using the text.  Students also worked on a second retell, relate reflect response on their independent reading book. Finally, we talked about what it means to read voraciously and why it is important. Please talk to your child about his/her reading habits and whether or not he/she is reading voraciously enough. This is an important factor in reading success!


Important upcoming dates:

Mon, Feb. 16th: Family Day
Friday, Feb. 20th: pool

There is no homework this week in order to allow families time to spend together. Enjoy! 

Best,
Bronwyn
