Hello Everyone,
An interesting week to say the least. Nonetheless, lots of learning was had.
In Math, we completed our anchor charts to help us understand how solids are formed by exploring a solid's  FACES, EDGES and VERTICES.

These anchor charts, as well as last week's homework, will help your child with this week's homework.

Our class was able to construct solids, look at NETS and determine real life examples of 3D solids in our environment.

Media Literacy is still our focus in Language. Our class is learning how advertisers use techniques to attract a specific audience so that they are ready to package a product and use the same techniques to attract a specific audience. Stay tuned!

We have moved on to another unit of Science called Forces. Ask your child what is a force and explain the 4 forces we've explored so far.

Our Arts strand continues to be Music. Thanks to Mrs. G's activity, our class was able to practice simple note patterns with a partner. 

As you can see, many still needed the anchor chart to remind them the value of each note or rest. Some students were innovative enough to make their own anchor chart to refer to. 

As you know our class pushed over another 100 marbles. I was able to have 2 of the class' choices met by doing and Open Gym block but by also offering board games up on the stage. Fun times were had by all.

A reminder of the St. Rita Annual Dance-a-thon happening this coming Friday. Envelopes were sent home last week in your child's agenda with an information sheet attached. 

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER.....

• Test on the 5 X tables this coming Friday.
• I continue to ask that you please check your child's agenda daily and their homework book weekly.
• Dance-a-thon this coming Friday.

Have a great week. I know we will.
