Here are the subjects and associated work being assigned this week:

Math

Going forward, students will be receiving 2 Jump Math lessons and a quiz each week. Please ensure that they go through the lessons and complete the work before attempting the quiz. In addition, students need to go to their Xtramath account to work on their basic fact speed.

Social Studies and Language Arts 

For the next few weeks we are integrating Social Studies into Language Arts. Yours students will be doing research on Alberta regions. Students should continue to journal daily and be prepared to show their journal on Monday class meetings.

Science

Students will be continuing to complete their observations of their experiment for the next few weeks. If you are following Mrs. Brophy’s mold experiment, the pictures will continue to be posted on your child’s classroom Stream.  Last week's observation sheets were a bit wrong. Please only do up to day 6 and then turn it in. Week 2's observation sheet will start on day 7 and go to 13. Thank you for understanding!
