We had a very busy week this past week. Please see the link: "What are we Learning?" to get more details. However, here are some test dates that are coming up in the next two weeks: Wed., Nov. 9 - test on 9s.; Friday, Nov. 11 - test on 6s; Tuesday, Nov. 15 - test on 7s; Friday, Nov. 18 - test on 8s. We will have a test in Science on Soil on Thursday, Nov. 17.
All of the children have passed 0 - 3; 5s & 10s. However, all did not pass their fours. They will be able to retake the test when they are ready. We will begin make-ups next week for those who need them. The purpose for memorizing the multiplication facts is that it makes everything in math in the future easier, if they have these in their working memory. We will be exploring 2 & 3 digit multiplication and "long" division in the spring.
This week, the children are off on Tuesday. I forgot delete that from the Specials Schedule, so I will send home an updated one on Monday.
Our trip to the Vulcan Rock Quarry is next Monday, Nov. 14. Many children have not paid. We put new permission slips in your child's Friday folders to remind you.
Our Family Thanksgiving Feast will be on Wednesday, Nov. 16, from 10:58 - 11:38. We hope you will be able to make it!
Have a great week!
