Tomorrow students will be participating in a fun afternoon exploring air and water.  Scientist in schools will be guiding students through a variety of hands on activities to deepen their understanding of air and water in the environment.  A big thank you to all the parents who are able to help make this afternoon possible.  If you are volunteering tomorrow, please be at the school by 12:30pm so that our presenter can explain to you how you will be supporting our students during this fun afternoon.  I apologize in advance for not being able to personally send a note in your child's agenda noting the time that you will be needed at the school. 

In math, we have begun exploring patterns that change by two attributes using a variety of classroom manipulatives including lego.

In language, students completed a google doc on the highlights of their holiday.  I am very impressed with how well the students are doing logging in to their accounts.  Please encourage your child to share with you their work using the student portal (first name.last name@ocsbstudent.ca).

Welcome back everyone!  I hope everyone had a wonderful time this holiday break with family and friends.  There was definitely a lot of energy in the classroom today.  We will be using the stories and tales that the students wanted to share with each other as a means of learning how to use google docs.  Students will be working on a recount of their 'holiday highlights' using google docs.  We hope to share these recounts with you once they are complete.

In Math, we will be starting our new unit on patterning.  We will also be starting our new unit in Science on Air and Water.  An information form went home today talking about our upcoming Scientists in Schools presentation on air and water.  If you are able to volunteer next Monday (January 11) from 1:00 - 3:40pm, please complete the form and send it back to class in your child's agenda.

The January homework calendar went home today.  There is one mistake on the calendar... our scientist in school's date is wrong.  Please adjust the tasks on January 11 and 13th accordingly.
