Sorry for the late posting. Our internet is very slow at school and we have been having trouble logging onto the internet. Today, our class went over the different Social structures of the Coastal First Nations People. This will be the final worksheet the class will need to review for the quiz on Thursday. The students also shared and went over their short story in a group. We discussed the main events in their book. We also continued our study on the circulatory system.

The Grade 5s will have their Math quiz tomorrow on Unit 1 Lessons 5, 6, 7. Please have your child come in early at 8:30 a.m. if (s)he is still unclear about some of the concepts in these lessons. Furthermore, we will be moving onto Unit 3 in the textbook. It is really important that the students have good speed and accuracy for their basic multiplication and division facts since they will be working with larger numbers in Unit 3.

Today in school we practiced Assembly behaviour. Students talked about what respect looks and sounds like during an assembly. All the students understand that Friday’s assembly will be somber and there will not be any applause or noise from the audience.
