Hello everyone!

Important reminders:

  • **If your child is sick, has vomited, has a fever, or has a stomachache, we ask that they please stay home from school. You can call the illness at 403-817-3444 and press 1 for the Attendance Line. It is best if you call in prior to 8:15 so we have time to take the messages off the machine. Please note, to reduce the spread of viruses, students should not be back at school until 48 hours after the last vomiting incident.***
  • Continue to check the Northern Lights News as it outlines important information every week. You can read about the upcoming Parent/Teacher Conferences on it!
Here is what we have been up to:

Land of Stories - We are still continuing to read Land of Stories, making predictions, reflections and connections as we go.

 

 

 

Writing - We are writing another narrative story! This week, we spend time planning with a partner and creating a rough plan of our beginning, middle and end. This one is about Space. We plan to finish it next week.
 


Literacy Stations - Next week, all groups will present their "play" to me.

Science - We did so many amazing things in Science this week. We spent one day exploring with Ozobots. The next day, we created a solar system and had our Ozobots orbit the Sun. We enjoyed our in-school field trip to the planetarium! Ask your child about this!
 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Math - We are learning about fractions, decimals and percentages and how they are all related to each other. Our Show What You Know about this will be next week (Thursday). 

Art - We finished up our constellations. We started a new project today. Stay tuned for the finished product next week!
 

 

 

 

 

Have a joyful weekend :)

Hello everyone, Important reminders: May 1st (next Thursday) is PJ Day for 4B! The students showed effort, perseverance and kindness to earn hearts for our class jar. 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. (...
