We have a busy week coming up!
Monday afternoon is the Engineering Challenge for the junior students. The grade 3s will enjoy watching some of this event while the grade 4s participate.
Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday so all of the students and staff will be enjoying pancakes at school.
Wednesday is Ash Wednesday. We will have a Liturgy of the Word at 10:30 a.m. All parents are welcome.
Friday is our Junior ski trip. It should be a great time for all those students participating!
Please see the grade 3 and 4 homework and updates below:
Math: We are just finishing up linear measurement and measurement conversions (e.g. there are 100cm in one 1m). We will then look at multi-digit addition and subtraction (e.g. 324 + 698).
Language: We continue to read Charlotte's Web. We are using this novel to examine a variety of writing and comprehension strategies. The students looked at the characteristics of a short story (one setting, few characters, one problem, a beginning paragraph with a hook, and a concluding paragraph that wraps up the problem presented) and will write a short story using some information from Charlotte's Web this week.
