Updates from May 10 to 14
Dear Division 6 families,
It has truly been an amazing week of learning! It went by so fast. Must mean we were having fun! Loved the Friday celebrations. Many of them celebrated their personal learning about long division and how proud they felt. This past week, students were given Math homework: Pages 102-3 #1-14 and page 106 #1 (a to l) and #2 (a to l). Click here to see a copy of the questions.
All children should have their Math exercise books at home this weekend. Please review that they have completed the homework and worked on their corrections. Most of the children who completed pages 102-3 have a note from me. Please read the note. If your child does not have a note, it was because they did not hand in their homework on time. We would appreciate having the homework completed and returned to school on Monday, please. We understand that families have activities and things that you may need to do on weekday evenings. In this case, please simply have your child bring their homework back to school and write a note in the planner, thank you!
Some students require a little more assistance in order to feel more confident with long division. If this is your child, I am happy to offer “Office Hours” tomorrow from 11 am to noon. I will send all families a link to Zoom. If your child would like to spend some time with me to help solidify their understanding of long division, please have them hop on!
Students were given a number of words to practice for spelling. Our review will be next Thursday. Please encourage your child to study. Thank you!
Yesterday, we learned about perimeter and will also learn about finding area next week. Feel free to ask them to show you their understanding of perimeter this weekend! Click here to watch a video that explains perimeter for review.
Our Kindness Projects are well under way. I love watching them work together!
For Science, we learned about the effects of sugar and the brain. One activity this week is for your child to record their sugar intake. Thank you for your support! We also started learning about simple machines. We will be diving into this more this coming week.
For art, students started weaving. They are looking great so far! We can’t wait for you to see their finished products!
Thank you for your continued support at home. We appreciate you! We are also grateful for the parents who joined us for our parent meeting last Monday. We had a fantastic week!
Grateful for you, Ms. Chan and Mrs. Paulich
