Reading: Nightly reading is very important. Please try to read your French at least 3 evenings a week.  Students have the same guided reading book as last week. Some needed a little extra time with their books this week :) . 

Math Sheet: This is a three by one digit multiplication sheet which is a review of grade 4. It is very important that students who do not yet know their multiplication facts continue to review these at home. In grade 5, students should know up to 9x9 automatically and be able to give you an answer within 3 seconds. If students are struggling with their facts, there is a multiplication card at the back of their agenda they can use to complete this worksheet (only if needed).

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

Multiplication Facts

When working on multiplication facts, it is important students know these facts easily and quickly.  It should only take 3 seconds for a student to answer. Although multiplication strategies are important and can be used when “stuck”, it is important that grade 5 students know up to 9x9 automatically with skip counting etc.

Face Masks

Please be sure to send two clean face masks to school each day. During the orange phase students will be wearing masks for the majority of the day in the classroom as well as when they are playing outside. Over the last two days some students have needed to change their mask and did not have a second mask with them. 

It is also important that students have a water bottle with them each day as they may find themselves needing more water than usual.

The orange phase will be an adjustment for students but they are a resilient and cooperative group and with a positive outlook we will get through this time together.

Math: This week, we will spend some time reviewing concepts from grade 4 (adding/subtracting with regrouping) that students will require moving forward in grade 5 Math. At this point, it is very important that students know their multiplication facts up to at least 9 x 9.  Those students who do not know their facts, should continue to review these at home on a regular basis. In the coming weeks, we will be moving on to more complex multiplication (three by one and two by two-digit multiplication) questions. To have success in this, it is important that students know their multiplication facts.
