T.W.A.S. Feb 10-21

T.W.A.S. (x2)

Today at school we had a Sharing Assembly.  We enjoyed seeing what the Grade 3's were learning about in building and are excited to see their display in the learning commons.  We also enjoyed Mrs. Boulanger's singing of "Boom Chicka Boom."  We tried out the new school cheer that was created by Mrs. Schwarz!

Book Clubs have changed! Everyone has a novel and are reading either as a group or independently. 

In Science, we are learning chemistry.  We did an experiment to test how to separate materials, which included using a sieve, a filter, decanting, floatation, and magnetism. We completed a quiz about the states of matter.  Ask me how I did.

All math groups are working on fractions and decimals.
Mr. Barker's group: we finished looking at decimals and are now focused on fractions.
Mrs. Gartner's group: we finished comparing fractions and now are focused on decimals.
Ms. Rutland's group: we made fraction posters with a math problem and including ordering them on a number line.
Mr. Pierce's group: we are also finishing fractions and are looking at decimals.

Next week is Pink Shirt Day on Wednesday, Feb. 26th. 

T.W.A.S. Feb 3-7

This was a great week at school - the highlight being our field trip to the Glenbow Museum! Whether it was the student's first trip (which for many it was) or they frequently go, it is an amazing destination with learning experiences that are second to none!  And each time students go with more background knowledge, they get more out of the experience.  Thanks to our awesome volunteers - we couldn't have gone without you!!

We also had our Family Night this week, which was extremely well attended!  Thanks to all for coming out!

Students are all working on fractions and decimals in math - ask your child to share with you what they've learned so far.

Reminder: next week is Teachers Convention (Feb 13-14), followed by Family Day Feb. 17.  There is no school for students these days.
