Another week has come and gone! The time is flying by so quickly! We have a great class and I am really enjoying getting to know each student daily. This week in Math (Grade 6) we are working on factoring, finding common multiples and also determining prime and composite numbers. I have sent home a short worksheet for the students to get some extra practice and for parents to see what we are learning. We have started working on our first reading strategy out of eight and this is the Self-Monitoring reading strategy. Students will become very familiar with this strategy and should be using it in their reading daily. We have started doing research on a person of interest in the computer lab and the students will be writing a biography on their chosen person. Finally, in Social Studies this week we have taken a short break from election chat to discuss some Prince Edward Island history which the students seem to have a real interest in!
We will be having our Terry Fox Walk/Run Fundraiser next week and if your child would like to throw a pie at their chosen teacher (or teachers...yikes!) it is $5 per pie and the money must be sent into the school by this Friday September 23rd. I will collect the money and turn it into Mr. Studer.
Hope you all have a great week! :)
