Hi there Grade 5 families!
Welcome to a fresh new year at Park Street! I hope you had a wonderful and relaxing break. I am looking forward to working lots of fun things with the students this term. Below are the homework items and updates for the fresh term:
Reading
15 minutes per night in French really helps students progress - the kids have been encouraged to revamp their nightly efforts and to take their time choosing and changing books to bring home
Xtra-math: All student accounts for Xtra-math hace been set to work on Multiplication and Division facts as we we will be working on these functions next!
January is
Compassion month
at PSS. We will be discussing during our classroom meetings and school-wide assembly January 17th
In Social Studies we will be starting a new unit on the Middle Ages. We will be primarily exploring the social structure during the
Middle Ages
(feudal system) and comparing/contrasting with social structures today.
In literacy, students will be working towards writing an
adventure narrative
to go along with our Middle Ages theme. We will also be spending lots of time reading and summarizing narrative texts.
There will be
no library
this week due to some exciting changes taking place! The big reveal will be next week!
Upcoming dates:
Jan. 16th Parent meeting for Grade 5 celebration (7 p.m.)
Jan 17th - School ARCC Assembly (Compassion)
Jan 30th - Bell Let's Talk Day (Mental Health Awareness)
Have a great week!
