Week of April 18-22


  • Wow! Hard to believe we are into spring.  
  • Grade 3/4 Math-  we have been working on telling time on digital and analog clocks over the last couple of weeks.  The 3's have also been working with units of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, months).  The 3's have also been working on adding and subtracting numbers to 1000, while the 4's have been working on adding and subtracting numbers to 10 000.  I will be having a quiz on these outcomes on Friday for the students.  I would ask everyone to keep practicing their facts. That is my homework expectation....10 min. each night.
  • Grade 6 Math-  We have been working on classifying triangles according to sides and angles over the last two weeks.  Students have also been constructing different types of triangles and understanding that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.  We will be having a quiz on this either Thursday or Friday of this week.  Please keep reviewing facts at night.
  • I will be starting to have some extra help classes the second week in May for the grade 3 and 6 students in order to prepare for the math assessment in June.  I will send home a parent letter close to the end of April.
  • Have a great week everyone.
