MARCH!!!

We hope everyone has a fabulous March Break! 

This month, both the Grade 2's and 3's will be working on reading response and writing a summary (the main idea in a reading) in Language Arts. 

Grade 2 (Strasser) will complete geometry in Math, and Water/Air in Science, and start on Traditions and Celebrations in Social Studies.

Grade 3 Students are finishing geometry and working on mulitiplication and division in math.  It is important for students to practice their multiplication facts and know them up to 7x7
**Students are asked to practice this nightly with flashcards or a deck of playing cards and time their progress.

Grade 3 will be starting The Early Settlers of Canada Unit.  The link on the right has many of the topics that students will be learning.

Thank you!!!

Fabulous February!

This month ......

Math- We are focusing on Geometry.  Students need to know the different names of figures (trapezoid, parallelogram, etc), they need to understand that an angle can be a right angle, less than or greater than a right angle, and the number of faces, edges and vertices they may have.  Check some of the math links for activities!

Language- This month we will read and write a variety of poems, work on journal responses, and writing proper responses to questions about readings.  We will continue to work on reading comprehension strategies.

Science- We are working on and will complete our unit on forces (magnetism, gravity, natural forces, electrostatic).
Students are encouraged to look up more information on the internet, with the help of a parent.

Please remind your child to read daily and sign the reading folder.

Mrs. Brennan's Class---The Math Question and Answer book should be completed every week, it is due every Friday, unless there is a P.A. day (then it would be due on Monday).

Your children are amazing! We have so much fun learning!
