Good evening room 10 families, We have a short, but jam packed month coming up! This week we will begin to review division and its relationship to multiplication. Then we will move in to developing for multiplying and dividing double digit numbers. Our writing will shift from narrative story writing to persuasive writing and we will continue working on developing our editing skills. In Social Studies we are learning about Alberta's rich historical past and we are excited to begin building our own Fur Trapper Fort. Health will continue to focus on improving our understanding of the impacts of bullying and we are excited to present our short stick puppet plays around the school to help others learn to be kind and inclusive. Field study permission forms will be coming home for our trip to the Leighton Centre on March 18th. Thank you to those families that have gone above and beyond to fulfill their volunteer commitments so far this year. We only require two...
Good afternoon everyone, Today everyone is bringing home their No Excuse spelling. I have attached the list we used for them to self-check and to practice with. Make sure they are not using capitals unless the word requires one. If you find they are mastering the list quickly I have attached a more comprehensive robust list to extend their learning. https://www.bvusd.org/site/handlers/filedownload.ashx?moduleinstanceid=1319&dataid=1838&FileName=No%20Excuse%20Words%20Spelling%20Words.pdf The Social Studies project that was sent home was due today. Those students who are building their cubes have the cube templates and their printed work if it was complete so they can glue it to the template. Please support your child in completing their project if they are still working on adding information to their documents. Remember to bring back all textbooks and green duo-tangs on Monday. We are working on multiplication - practice math facts! 😀 Tom...
Good afternoon room 10 families, PINK SHIRT DAY - it was an emotional and impactful day. We watched a video called "I Hate Kate" to learn about the impacts of bullying, you can watch it on YouTube. From this video we realized that we do not yet have the words to properly express our emotions so we spent time building out emotional vocabulary. The kids wanted to share it with you. 😊 We learned that the damage done, the scars left on our hearts, cannot be erased once the bullying has ended, but we can stop them from forming by standing up for victims, by spreading kindness, and by being a friend. Now that we know what bullying is, we're beginning to learn about why someone bullies and how we can effectively stand up to it to make our world a kinder place for everyone to be. Please speak to your children about their feelings about today's learning. Remind them that you are their best advocate and that they can always share their concerns with you - we somet...
Merry Christmas, Happy new year, Happy holidays.
