January Newsletter
ELA:
The students have continued to work on Daily 5 in order to improve
their reading and writing skills. We
have also been working on Sadako. The
students researched and presented a topic of their choice.
Sciences
humaines:
During Social Studies, the students been preparing for the next
unit, which will look at the relations between the Aboriginals and the
Europeans upon their arrival to North America. They are now researching a famous explorer.
Sciences de la
nature:
During Science, we have been looking at food labels and how to
choose healthy food. We have also looked
at the 4 food groups and discussed what a portion is.
Français:
In French, the students have been studying the verbs in present
tense. They finished writing their
Aboriginal story and typed it on the computer.
They have also been writing their speeches. We have discussed how to write an
introduction as well as the body paragraphs.
Math:
The students continued to work on algebraic questions as well as
pattern and relations. We also did a
review of basic multiplication with the help of centres to prepare them for
long multiplication. We have also been
looking at different strategies for long multiplication, for example:
62x9 = (9x60) = (9x2) = 558
Art:
The students completed a snowflake painting.
Thanks to all our patrols for working hard even in the cold winter
weather!!
Another big thanks to all the parents who came with us to the
Christmas Cheer Board. This was a worthwhile excursion and the students really
felt good about their hard work after we were done!

It was fun this month. We really enjoyed it because we were able to do hoop dancing and we were able to to the Disney Musical, The Little Mermaid Junior. And we hope that the kids of class 22 have an amazing February!
