Good Evening Parents!

UOI: Today the students researched about the major oceans and Great Lakes. They used their personal devices and worked in groups to find out the importance of the Great Lakes. The students  then added the ocean and lakes to their Map of Canada. We also watched a video about Winne the Pooh today! Take a look a the link!

We would also like to  fill our UOI board with post cards from different provinces and territories in Canada. Students are encouraged to ask friends and/or family that live in another province or territory to send them a post card to add to our UOI board. We would love to add some to our board!

Provinces and Territory Quiz on Monday Sept. 26! Please use the websites below to study for the quiz. Students will be required to fill out a map of Canada with the provinces, territories and capital cities. Students will also be required to name the oceans and Great Lakes. We will be learning the rest of these topics this week. I have also sent home a quiz review sheet so the students can start studying at home. Please return the green folders everyday.

Spelling: Students have began Lesson 2 in their spelling books. Spelling test is on Friday and Lesson 2 is also due on Friday.

Math: Today we compared and ordered numbers up to 10,000, as well as added and subtracted 3 and 4 digit numbers. We played a card game where students had to create different numbers with the amount digits I told them to create. The first group to create that number won points! Check on the pictures below!
