Hello
Parents!
Today the
students started off their morning with Gym. Following that, they began working
on their Biodiversity summative. Students were able to organize their printed
information into their books, and they used materials in class to decorate
their front covers. Once that period was done, we took up our math homework
before we went to lunch.
After lunch,
we worked on math again, and I introduced lesson #8 (Multiplying Decimals with
Tenths), and lesson #9 (Multiplying Decimals with Hundredths). We went through
many examples on the whiteboard, and the students watched as some of their
peers came up to the board to solve the math problems. After, they were
instructed to complete their textbook work for both lessons.
After math,
the students had Music, and then we had second break. Since Mme. Stella was
absent today, and French was cancelled, the students used that time to work on
their UOI summative, or their math textbook work. When that period was done, we
discussed our Novel Study questions, and then talked about our predictions.
With some time left at the end of the day, I allowed the students to get a head
start on their math workbook homework, as they have two lessons to complete. Shortly
after, the students got ready to go home.
Just a few important notes before I go:
1.
Math: Unit
8, Lesson 8 and 9- Workbook P#118-121.
2.
Novel
Study: read Chapter 18, and answer the corresponding questions.
3.
UOI
Summative: DUE TOMORROW!! Presentations will begin at 9am! All students
must come prepared to present, as tomorrow will be the only day available.
4.
The Grade
5’s and up will be going on a Ski trip on Wednesday, March 8nd, and Thursday, March 9th. This
trip will also include other grades (from grade 5 to 12), and it will be a full
day thing. Students must dress warm, as we will be outside almost all day! We
will be leaving the school at 6:45am, and we will arrive back to St. Jude’s at
5:00pm. I have been informed that there is a café on site, so students can
purchase a lunch if they bring money. Otherwise, please remember to pack a
lunch for your child, as it will be a long day, and they need to eat!

Lastly, this week will be spirit week! Students are encouraged to participate all week!
Tuesday:

much sums it up for today. I hope everyone has a wonderful night!
