Happy Friday Division 9! We have successfully completed our first week of online learning. Thank you for sending me your work. I really enjoyed reading your comments yesterday! You can click on Comments at the top of Thursday, April 16th to read your friends’ comments and my replies to them. We are exploring many new ways of learning but it is fun and exciting because we are still learning together.

ASSIGNMENT #1 – ROBERT MUNSCH STORY RESPONSE – Please email your work to Mrs. Manners

At school, we had been learning about the different features of Robert Munsch stories. Before spring break, we noticed  that he uses humour and repetition. Today we are going to  pay attention to how he uses exaggeration in Moira’s Birthday.

  1. EDIT Read or listen to Moira’s Birthday – to listen to it and watch it, go to Montecito Library Web resources and search for it on Tumblebooks using the magnifying glass symbol in the top right corner or you can read it yourself on Epic Books  (Class Code: jix0425 and click on Guest Student). Sorry that I can’t put a direct link to the story as these sites require passwords or a paid license.
  2. Complete the Exaggeration response sheet and send it to me by email.

This is your reading assignment today so you don’t have to do Raz Kids unless you still want to do more reading after doing today’s assignments.

ASSIGNMENT #2 – MATH

Yesterday, you counted all of the same kind of coins. Today there will be mixed groups of coins. So when you are counting, you will need to switch from one kind of skip counting and count on from that number with a different kind of skip counting. 3 dimes and 2 nickels would be counted as 10, 20, 30, 35, 40.

Complete this Counting Mixed Coins worksheet. Again, you can practice with your coin collection too.
