Hello everyone!

Here are some important reminders:

  • Please make sure you are checking the blog at the end of every week. In addition, you can also find the Northern Lights News on our school website (search up our school name and it will take you to our school website).
  • If you are going to be away for any reason (extended holiday, illness, doctors appointment, etc.) please let the school know (you can also send me an email).

Here is what we have been up to up this week: 

Math - We practiced two-digit by one-digit multiplication and three-digit by one-digit multiplication. We also learned how to solve word problems that have to do with multiplication. Then we completed the Show What You Know. At the end of the week, we started learning about measurement (area). 

 
 
 
 
 

Writing - We are writing persuasive paragraphs. We wrote about our favourite movie and typed them on the computer. 
 

Cards for Seniors - We wrote messages of hope and love for seniors in our community.
 

 

 

Literacy Stations :)
 

 


Science - We are learning about Gravity and completed an experiment. 
 

 

 

:)

Buddies - We had different stations (Ms. Vashi's class had Ozobots and Mrs. Nakaska's class had marshmellow villages). What a blast! Ask your child what we did at each station!

They got to vote between three options and chose PJ Day . Students will be allowed to bring 1 stuffy on this day. As long as their stuffy does not interfere with their or someone else's learning, students can have their stuffies on their desks. Please email me if you are able to volunteer for our upcoming field trip in May. Our class is looking for two more volunteers!

Hello 4B Families! Important reminders: Our Family Math Night has been cancelled, as schools are not able to host evening events due to the CUPE Local 40 strike. If plans are made in the future to reschedule, we will communicate details at that time. Thanks for your understanding! Next week, the weather is supposed to be warmer. This will mean that the playground will be slushy and muddy. Please help your child dress in footwear that will keep their feet dry. Running shoes are not the safest or best choice for playing outside in this type of weather. All students (from K-5) should always keep a change of clothes in their backpacks that they can change into if they get wet or muddy. This includes socks, pants, shirts and underwear. Having clothes to change into will ensure they are comfortable and that they classroom is staying clean. Here is what we have been up to this week: Literacy Stations - Below is the success criteria and expectations for our literacy stations. We had a convers...

Hello everyone, I have the BEST students :) Here is what we have been up to up this week: Writing - We are learning about procedural writing. We practiced writing instructions on our whiteboards about simple things (how to tie your shoelaces, how to build a fort, how to do long division). We then practiced writing in our writing journal.                      Gratitude - We wrote about what makes us smile :) Science - We are learning about static electricity. Ask your child about this! Math - We started learning about long division. We will continue practicing next week. We took a short break from it to learn about collecting data and graphing. As we are moving towards more complex math concepts, it is really important to be fluent with your multiplication facts.          Have a wonderful weekend! Stay warm! Important Dates January 27 - Report Cards for K-5 available online within your MyCBE parent account. (...
