Good morning class! Please note that Mr. Smith’s music classes have permanently moved to Wednesday as he is teaching on Tuesdays.

Here are your morning announcements from Ms. Hall and Ms. Vesa.

#1. Reading: 

  • RazKids: read 1-2 stories and complete the questions
  • MySciLearn: complete your first story of the week
  • Epic Books: read for enjoyment after you have completed the rest of your work

#2. Language Arts: Today you can choose any story book of your choice. It can be from Raz-Kids, Reading Assistant, Epic Books or even a real book that you have at home! If you don’t have a book or can’t decide on one that you would like to read, please read Angela’s Airplane, by Robert Munsch. I have added it to Assignments in Epic books. When you have finished reading the book please complete this reading log.  On the reading log you will be asked for a variety of information from the book cover and from the story. One section asks for important words, these can be words that were important in the story or words that you learned from the book. You will also need to write about the setting (where the story takes place), the problem (in most books the character(s) have a problem to solve) and then the solution (how was the problem solved). Finally you can write about your favourite part! Please hand in your paper on Teams when you are finished.

#3. Math: There are a few students in our class who have been using IXL for extra math practice. Unfortunately, our free trail has ended, so you will not be able to access the site anymore. Math Playground is a great site for fun math games.

  • Grade 2’s: Once again you are doing 2 digit addition with regrouping. The second page is teaching you a different way to add. You will add up the one’s column, the ten’s column and then add the two together.   Worksheets 1 & 2
  • Grade 3’s: In today’s work you will be filling in a multiplication chart. We have learned that multiplication and repeated addition are the same. When you are filling in the chart, count by the number you are multiplying. For example, if I’m multiplying by 2’s, I am also counting by 2’s. I would count 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12…. Multiplication is all about memorization. Watch this video for a few songs and tricks to learning multiplication. Worksheets 1 & 2

#4. Physical Education: It is supposed to rain all day today. If you can’t get outside, please do one of the following:

#5.  Art: (for fun! optional!)  Today you can learn to draw a hedgehog..If you would like to share a drawing with the class, please ask a parent to email me (Mrs. Leroux) your picture and I will put it into the Gallery.  Have a look in the Gallery to see all the drawings that are already there!
