Hi All, this is another short week. Here's the plan:
Tuesday is a short day. You'll be dismissed at 1:54. Parents, I look forward to meeting with you Tuesday afternoon or evening.
Math - we will explore more ways of thinking about subtraction. You'll get a potpourri of strategies to tinker with. Do your best to approach these with an open mind. Who knows? Maybe one of these strategies will become your new go-to technique for finding the difference between numbers!
Reading - We'll jump back into some reading skills work this week.
Social Studies - The upcoming BC election will remain our focus over the next 3+ weeks leading up to voting day.
Science - You'll jump into a "stations lab" situation this week. This is a chance to explore aspects of the excretory system in small groups in a variety of modes. This "lab" will take two sessions. If you miss part of it due to absence, please do your best to catch up during flex time.
Writing - Thank-you for finishing and turning in your "My New Island" piece. (If yours isn't finished yet, its not too late! Try to get it done soon, though.) We'll turn our ideas toward storytelling next. October is upon us, and it's time to get into Mr. Pite's annual Halloween story writing piece. Spooky? Yes please! Bone-chilling terror? You bet! Candy, costumes, monsters, ghouls, ghosts, goblins and creepy-crawlies of all shapes and sizes? Bring it on!
Skating - our first OBRec field trip is happening Friday. Be prepared!
Enjoy your week, everyone.
