Homework and PA Day!

This week has blown by in room 203.  We've had a great time exploring reflections, slides, and rotations in math class and I've put up our mural highlighting various physical regions of Canada.  It's really brightened up our room.  As we learn more about regions of Canada and land use, we'll add to our mural.

Our poetry unit has also been a big hit.  I'm amazed at some of the work being produced.  We're learning to write as poets using language that is more interesting and descriptive.

Our after school math club was a big success this week.  We had a few students on Monday and that number doubled for our gathering this afternoon.  If I see the need arise, I will contact parents and let them know when we will be working after school again but right now I'm confident that everyone is on track.  If students feel like they need help, they just need to let me know and I will be happy to find time to work with them.

Homework:

• Spelling
• Sentences and one other activity due tomorrow
• I am hoping that all students hand in their spelling work in duotangs this week.  If a student can not find their spelling duotang, I will give them a new one tomorrow.  
• Test is tomorrow
• Reading Logs:  I am sorry that reading logs haven't been handed out yet.  They will be distributed tomorrow and are expected back by Monday, November 18.  Students are expected to read a book of their choice for 15 minutes each night after school.  If reading at home isn't working out, please let me know.  I have a number of strategies that might help.  

DON'T FORGET, FRIDAY IS A P.A. DAY!
