Happy last week before March Break! If your child will be absent for any part of this coming week, please don't forget to call in to the school to report your child absent.
It is spirit week this week. Please check the weekly announcement to see how your child should dress each day.
Please see the homework and updates below:
See grade 3 homework and grade 4 homework here.
Math: We have been working with addition and subtraction of 3 (grade 3) and 4 (grade 4) digit numbers. The strategies we have been using are: a number line, and regrouping by adding the ones column, then tens column, etc. We have also been looking at subtraction as the difference between two numbers, not just "take away".
Language: The students are working on short stories with an introductory paragraph used to introduce a limited number of characters, 1 or 2 settings, and the problem. The body includes about 3 attempts to solve the problem. The concluding paragraph wraps it all up, with a solution to the problem.
