Hello grade 5 families,

 

A big THANK YOU to all those who came up to support our school during the Nissan Test-Drive event this weekend. Your support is greatly appreciated. Here are the reminders and important updates for this week:



Reading 15 minutes per night in French - I can't stress how important this is for students' growth and development!
Practice basic math facts (addition or subtraction) using Xtra-math or flash cards
This week is safe schools week. Tuesday we will be doing our school evacuation to NMS, Wednesday practicing bus evacuations, and Thursday we will have a Cyber Awareness presentation with our tech lead, Mr. Whipple.
A reminder that we are still collecting money for Polio. Just $2 can help vaccinate a child against this debilitating disease. .
Monday we will enjoy a Geordie Productions performance of 'Little Witch'
We are beginning flex math groups this week. We will be focusing on representing, comparing and ordering numbers to 10 000 and 100 000 as well as reviewing basic strategies for mental math, estimation and addition/subtraction. 
In literacy we will begin working on our Leadership project writing a paragraph about an individual we feel destmonstrates leadership qualities and has positively contributed to their community
In English we are working towards a research project focusing on comparing/contrasting different First Nations' cultures from the Atlantic Canadian region
Upcoming dates:
Wednesday, Oct 24th: Take Me Outside Day
