February 24-28th

Friday, February 28th

AMA what my descriptive word means from the lesson with Ms. Hatch.  These are some of the words that will be in our upcoming novel... do you have any guesses about what this might be?

AMA the assembly today. Darrin from the Calgary Opera shared the music and some of the lyrics of the songs with us today.  We look forward to working more with him over the next couple months practicing the Opera.




Thursday, February 27th

We did the Accountability Pillar Survey today.  AMA how I feel at school.

Students finished their "Terabithia Model" projects today and look forward to sharing them with you at upcoming conferences. 

We started learning subtraction strategies today. AMA the "Count Up Method" that helps visualize mental math strategies for subtraction.

Thanks to everyone wearing pink shirts today!  Our kindness and anti-bullying work will continue over the next month.

Please continue to send in paper towel rolls over the next week and a half for a science project.

AMA what I learned about post-apocalyptic fiction from Ms. Hatch and what novel I think we might read next.
AMA the poster we started today with the 3 Rs

As our work continues with addition and subtraction of 4 digit numbers, please continue to practice basic facts at home (for example, using the Xtra math login information that was sent home earlier this year) to build fluency and confidence to solve bigger equations.

Thanks for an amazing last day at the ski hill. I think there will be some tired kids at the end of the day!


Monday, February 24th

Our last day of skiing is tomorrow. Please remember to dress in layers for the changing temperatures that are predicted for the morning.
