October 19th - 23rd

Hello Families,

A few pieces of housekeeping before we move on to the homework:

*Ferme des Voltigeurs Fundraising campaign ends this week. Please send in your orders for Thursday the 22nd. The funds collected go to activities for all the students, but also pay for the Graduations T-Shirts our class will receive. Thank you for your help!

*The holiday show permission form is also due this Wednesday. This outing is part of the Arts program and we look forward to having all the students participate.

*Friday is a pedagogical day - if you need childcare, please contact the office.


Homework:

Math: continuing with division and calculation of decimals, it is very important that all students us the Reflex Math app several times a week to help them develop fluency in their calculations. There will be a short calculation test this week as well as continuing work with word problems (green duotang and JUMP math book)

Social Science: Students have their first test in their backpacks to be signed by a parent, and corrections are due Thursday. We are using this work as an opportunity to strengthen study skills while learning about Quebec Society around 1980 (orange duotang)

Science: Students began in class a comprehension exercise that they will need to complete at home for Thursday (purple duotang and text on iPad)

Language Arts: Students should spend 15 to 20 minutes per night reading in the novel they chose from the class library. Students also have their first response in their blue duotang  - to be signed by a parent.

Have a lovely week!
