 Monday March 22

Celebrations

Today we said goodbye to one of our classmates who is moving to the lovely west coast.  We each had an opportunity to send him a positive intention which we sent with him in a class book.  We were very proud of what the students wrote in their messages and know that the book will mean a lot to our friend

Both grade 3 and 4 students worked on multiplication facts today.  We focused on showing arrays and reviewed the other ways we know to show a fact such as repeated addition, equal groups, number lines, skip counting, etc.

Mrs. Zwack's kids had the opportunity to use the climbing wall today in PE while Mr. Kelly's group played Swedish Baseball.  We will switch it up tomorrow.

Something to talk about 

Which Change Maker are you researching?  Tell your parents 3 interesting facts about your person!

Reminders 

This is a full week of school and we finish at noon on Friday.  We return from Spring Break on Tuesday April 6th.

Whiteboard Markers!!   Students are, for various reasons, running out of ink in their second whiteboard marker.  We have no more markers to provide, so please send a new one with your child (labeled please!) if theirs has run out.  We use them every day for math on small whiteboards.

We are planning a trip to the Coulee Friday morning.  Please dress for the weather.
