Class Supplies


Dear Parents,
We would like some story books for our class library. If you have any gently used books at home that you would like to donate, we would greatly appreciate it.

Also, we would like some Kleenex boxes and wipes to keep the class neat and germ free. We like cleaning as a class. It would help a lot. :)

We would love it if we can also have a universal remote control and a tv mount.

Please make sure your child comes to class prepared with his school supplies such as pencil, eraser glue etc.

Thank you,

Tr. Merve

Grammar:

The next two weeks, we will learn about creating a sentence using a subject and action word.


Thank you,

Social St. update

1. direction on a Map
2. using Canada map to learn about the compass
3. Learning about different provinces and territories.

This unit will come to an end by next week. By January we will begin the new unit " communalities".


Thank you,

Tr. Merve

Math update

Dear Parents



In math we are learning about addition and subtraction. Part of the lesson involved students count with coins. We will take the next few weeks to learn the different types of coins and how to add it up. Majority of the worksheet will be completed in class. The reason why the work will be in class  so they have more one on one time with the teacher. This will help solve many of their questions. Same will be applied to the other subjects. Please help your child review the topics learned in class by reviewing their worksheets/workbooks.

Thank you,

Merve :)
