Happy Monday Parents!

I am so happy to be back in the classroom learning with all of my amazing grade 3’s! I missed them all so much over the break and I hope you all had a fantastic and relaxing holiday! We began our day with math where we focussed on responding to multiplication word problems. We followed some steps in order to ensure that we answered the questions well and checked over our answers.

In language we read the next two chapters of Stuart Little (11-12), and we practiced our critical thinking skills by responding to some comprehension questions. We had to think about what it would be like to be Chairman of the World (like Stuart) and what rules we would have!

After lunch, recess, and French, we began our new UOI unit! The class is very excited to begin our “Tell Me a Story” unit! Today we focussed on non-fiction text features, we learned about items including:   a table of contents, labels, a zoom in, a caption, a header, an index, and bold print. We then had a scavenger hunt with partners to find those items in different books!

After second lunch and recess we ended the day with music and gym before completing agendas and heading off to kiss and ride!

Important Reminders:

• Math Homework (Drill sheet, please time students to see how long it takes them to complete the sheet-if it takes them awhile that is okay!)
• Stuart Little Ch 11-12 Comprehension if it wasn’t finished in class
• Read 25 minutes
• Casual Day Wednesday
• Friday $2 casual day for Autism Awareness Day

Have a wonderful night!
