Good afternoon,

Another chilly day! Hopefully it will be the last for a while! A few important points before we move on…

PRE REGISTRATION IS DUE FEBRUARY 20, 2015.

LUNCH FORMS FOR FEBRUARY ARE DUE FRIDAY JANUARY 23, 2015. Late forms will not be accepted!

I will be checking homework on a daily basis so please ensure your child completes all homework. For the most part, Math will be given on a daily basis.

MATH

Today we began our multiplication and division unit. We did a mini lesson on skip counting (2, 4, 6, 8, 10            3, 6, 9, 12, 15             5, 10, 15, 20                        10,20,30). Students we then asked to complete questions in the textbook. Please take time to practice some multiplication factors with you children.  If they did not finish it was added to their homework. They also have to complete two pages in their Math Makes Sense (MMS) practice book.

LANUGAGE

This period was spent research Greece for International Day. We were lucky to have Charlotte from grade 7 to help us out. We are hoping to have all of our research done by this week, so next week we can begin our good copies and begin to put it together!

U.O.I.

Today we discussed the importance of being physically active. The students thought of an activity they really enjoy and acted it out. The other students had to guess what was being acted out.

The fundraising ladies raised another $35 today! Great job. Please remember to stay away from candy that may contain nuts or that have been manufactured in a nut facility!!  Thank you!

CLASS NOTES

Please bring in student information sheets and after school money if applicable.

Please remember to check your child’s agenda and sign it daily.

Please send in some scotch tape and Kleenex. Thank you for the water and Lysol wipes!

Our new classroom signs!

Have a great night!

Mrs. Hocevar :)
