Feb 14-25

 Hello everyone,

Those were a couple short weeks.

In math we wrapped up multiplication and began division.  We've looked at how to draw pictures to help us divide things into even groups, and also uneven groups with remainders.  Today we talked about what to do with remainders.  If it's a thing that can't be divided, like putting people into groups, we can make some groups larger than others.  If it's something that can be cut, such as a pizza or a cookie, we discussed how to we can share the remainder.  We've also been learning about money, it's values and practiced dividing that as well.

In French we recorded our videos and shared them with the class.  They worked out well.

We are wrapping up social for now and will be moving into more science.  We'll be looking at waste in our world in grade 4 and in grade 3 we'll be looking at rocks and minerals.  First we'll start with some vocabulary, then move into centers.

Important dates

March 4th - Celebration of learning goes live

March 10th-11th - Parent conferences.  Please book a time online

Hello everyone. It was a great week.  We're wrapping up multiplication and area and moving onto division.  We're realizing that we already do division quite often in our lives and that we already have an understanding of what it is.  Now we just have to figure out how to represent it mathematically, how it relates to multiplication and how to do it with larger numbers. We've been learning about different pronouns in French, such as 1st, 2nd and 3rd person singular and plural, and how verbs change based on which person we're using.  We've begun working on a script for a small skit wherein students can practice conjugating verbs in this way.  We'll be filming those scripts in a few days. In social we're still working on our trading cards and resource maps, and they will be finished soon.   Upcoming important dates Feb 17-18 - Teacher convention - No school Feb 21 - Family day - No school
