Language Arts

This week we will continue working on our reading comprehension strategies. We are learning how to identify the main idea, find supporting details, and write a one sentence summary. We are also working on how to refine our own writing ideas. We are also working on a new set of words.

Math

Students have a quiz on Thursday. They will be expected to know: Prime Numbers, Composite Numbers, Square Numbers, Arrays, and the Divisibility Rules for 2,5, and 10. Students are also working on their rules for 3 and 9.

*If you are needing any extra help in Math, please come in at lunch or after school for help!

Science
Students are learning about the physical properties of matter as well as the different states of matter.

* Please bring in your empty water or pop bottles! We are trying to conduct our first experiment so the sooner the better!

Socials
Students are continuing to learn about the Canadian Government. We have looked at various examples and students are quite enthused.

I am really enjoying getting to know my students this year!
