Today’s Assembly

The students did a fabulous job sharing at today’s assembly. Students shared what they learned about nutrition, exercise and mental health. Then, alongside Mme Marko’s students, the class performed a dance choreography, a great example of physical exercise and having fun! Students were courageous and did an excellent job!

Bike to School Week

We had MANY students from our class bike to school this week. Way to go! Many won draw prizes today as well.

Participaction

In class, students have begun tracking how many minutes a day they are active. We will be contributing this data to add to Kamloops’ goal. An email was also sent to school families so that other family members may participate using an App.

Math

Please note that a subtraction worksheet was sent home today. As we have been working on 2-digit minus 2-digit numbers for a long time, this was a summative assessment. Please support your child in correcting any errors.  Then, please sign and return the worksheet. There is more than one way to figure out a subtraction problem, so have your child share what method he or she used to subtract in different situations. Grade three students are also expected to be able to work with 3-digit numbers.

Animal Books

Children took their animal books home yesterday after sharing them with students in our class and in Mme Dufour’s class. Students did a great job learning how to research and express ideas in their own words. Our focus was on adjectives.

Prince Charles Park

We will be visiting Prince Charles Park at the end of June for picnic fun with Mme Dufour’s and Mme Kilmartin’s classes. However, please note that we will be changing the date from the one on the June calendar that was sent home. It turns out that another school will make the park quite busy that day! Our trip will likely by Friday, June 21. Once confirmed, the new date will be communicated to parents.

I have noticed some TCC permission slips, June calendars and other items in the front pockets of agendas! Please be sure to remove these from your child’s agenda and keep them at home:)

Happy June!
