May 25th - 29th

Hello Grade 4 Parents

Can you believe we are entering our 11th week of isolation? It’s crazy to think that students have been away from our building for that long. We certainly miss having their physical presence and look forward to seeing them again in our classrooms and hallways. We hope that you are all well and that you are finding some success with our ongoing learning program. 

We would appreciate your feedback as we enter the last 5 weeks of school Please click on the following link https://forms.gle/DkD7a2JA5seN1iup9 We know that it’s not always easy to stay on top of assignments so we are seeking your input to improve what we are doing. As always, you are in charge of what your child is completing. You have full discretion to lower the workload for your child if they are finding it challenging to keep up with. 

Food Drive:
If you are able please drop non-perishable food items off at the school on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. Thank you so much!

SOCIAL:
Our animal research project will continue this week.  This week we will be focusing on animal characteristics, and they may need to expand upon what they have already found. We will be expanding on the other topics they researched slowly each week.

SCIENCE:
Thanks go to one of our wonderful parents for passing on this fantastic video about Alberta’s bottle recycling program. Students need to watch the video and then complete the 10 question quiz about what they watched.

MATH:
We will be moving into our unit on Area this week. This will be a lighter set of math lessons with no quiz this week so enjoy the break.

LITERACY:
Students in 4D will be working on a comprehension assignment called “Wreck-it Ralph”. They need to watch the trailer for the video and then complete some comprehension activities.
