Picture Retakes are Monday. Sorry for the late notice, I wasn't aware of the date but it was posted on Social Media. SAY CHEESE!

Grade 5 Fundraiser: We are selling “Big Box” Greeting Cards, there are 33 all occasion cards in the box for the price of $33 (sold only by the box). We are asking that each student try to sell at least one box. For each box sold, the grade 5 classes will receive $10 towards end of the year activities and sweaters. This was a very successful fundraiser for our classes last year.

 

This week, both grade 5 classes brought home a card box, order form and instructions.  

 

If you choose to only sell one box, you can keep the box you have at home and return the order form and $33 payment to school. If you sell multiple boxes, you still keep the one you have at home and additional boxes will be ordered at the end of the fundraiser.  

 

Birthday boxes are also available. This is 33 birthday cards for the same price of $33. If you would prefer a birthday box, write birthday box in the comment field.

 

Please return payment and order forms by October 27th, 2021.

 

Thanks!

Please study multiplication facts for x 3. I realize this may be basic multiplication for most grade 5’s. However, some grade 4’s only touched on multiplication last year and should review their facts. Grade 4’s should study up to 3 x 9 and grade 5’s should study up to 3 x 12.

You will find multiplication strategies and facts at the back of your homework binder. Multiplication quiz on x3 on Friday.

Mots Fréquents:

In the back of the agenda binder, you will find Mots Fréquents words.  Students are responsible for studying List 1 words this week. On Friday, students will have a spelling test.

I have placed a DIY white board and dry erase marker in each student’s agenda binder. These are yours to keep and use at home.  Some students enjoy practicing their words on a white board, others prefer to practice them out loud. Whatever works for your child. This will be new for most students as they have not done spelling quizzes in the past.

We will also be working on these words throughout the week at school.

Les Mots:

aime

beaucoup

hier

respect

Face Masks: Please be sure to send an extra clean face masks to school each day. Public health recommends masks be washed after each use. We have also had some discussion at school about finding a mask that is comfortable and fits well. Some students are struggling with their masks because they are too big and won’t stay over their nose and mouth. Students are doing their best to follow the guidelines and I understand it is not easy on our class, but I appreciate their positive attitudes.
