We had a lot of fun at SJA today! Today was an important day, as the students ran for charity in the annual Terry Fox Run. It was a beautiful day for the children to get outside and run for this important cause. The students ran hard and worked up a sweat! I have a couple pictures from the event posted below.
When we returned to class the students began working on our Unit of Inquiry. In today's class the students were introduced to PowerPoint which is a skill we are going to be using to complete our summative task. In today's class we took the pictures from our community walk yesterday, and turned them into a PowerPoint. Ask your child tonight what they learned!
During language today the students worked on sentence construction. They were asked to take incorrect sentences and re-write them.
During math today the children completed a general review in their Arithmetic books. Students focused on telling time, adding and subtracting, and adding decimal points.
The students also went to PE, Art and French classes today.
Homework: Read for 2o minutes and record in the reading log, practice weekly spelling words, Language pages 19 - 20 and math pages 9-10.
Important information: The grade 3s will be having their first math unit test on Tuesday, October 1st on their place value unit we have been working on for the last few weeks.
Ms. Genco sent home an update on school lunches earlier this week. There was an error on the lunch calendar which had September 30th missing from the order forms. If you would like to order lunch for your child for Monday, September 30th you must send in the form and the money by tomorrow.
A boy in our class came home with the wrong SJA uniform pants last week after changing in PE class. His name is marked in his pants. Please check your son's pants at home to make sure they are wearing the correct pants and did not take home the wrong pair. This boy has a pair of pants he needs to trade back once his pants are located.
A girl in Mrs. Haag's Grade 4 class is missing her SJA cardigan. It is labeled with her name. Please check for this missing cardigan at home.
Please make sure that all articles of the uniform are clearly marked with your child's name.It is almost impossible to tell these pieces apart once there is a mix-up. The only way for your child's uniform to stay sorted is to ensure it is clearly marked.
We are looking to have small boxes collected for an upcoming project in our Unit of Inquiry. The students are going to be asked to build small scale rural and urban communities. Please help us with this project by collecting and sending in small boxes that we can use. Please see the form sent home yesterday for more information.
Best regards,
Mrs. Nelson
