Monday, November 3

I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!  It was fun to see everyone in their costumes last week.  This week:

  • Some students have brought in their own headphones to use with their school laptops (useful for when they are hearing online stories).  If they haven't already, they can bring in a pair of headphones (they are even available at Dollarama) and I can store them here.
  • I will be introducing the idea of our school's Student Council today.  They are welcome to run for our class position, with our voting happening on Wednesday. 
  • Picture retake day is tomorrow (Tuesday)
  • Hot Dog Day will be Tuesday November 18th! Tickets are now on sale through School Cash Online
  • Popcorn Tuesdays are starting on November 25th. Popcorn Days are for sale in School Cash Online until November 11th.
  • Friday is a PD Day, so there will be no school on that day.
In Language this week, we will be looking at a pair of poems for Remembrance Day.  As a challenge, I am going to suggest some to try to learn parts of In Flanders Fields by memory to be recited next week in class.  If they prefer to read it out loud next week from the paper, they can do that too.

In Math, we will continue to be looking at place value and comparing numbers to 1000.  This week, we will be reviewing the concept of rounding numbers.
