MARCH BREAK

This week is going to be warmer....right? I'm hoping that the brunt of winter is behind us and we can look forward to warmer, spring like temperatures.  A girl can hope anyways!
March Break is almost upon us... but this will prove to be another busy week.  Just to re-cap some of our school events before the week blurs into Friday.

Grade 3 students go to their first 'Swim to Survive' lesson on Thursday. Parents- this is a free program provided to all grade three students across Simcoe County.  It is aimed at all abilities and NO previous swimming background is necessary.  I sent a permission form home early last week- did you get it? It needs to be returned by Wednesday.  We will leave around noon and be back in time for dismissal. Students will need to bring their bathing suit and towel in a plastic bag on swimming days.  We will be sure to include a note in the agenda the night before to remind you. Any questions or concerns please contact me at the school, or via email.

Friday is PJ Day.

Math- we are wrapping up our 2D & 3D geometry units. We will move into Number Sense. More details to follow, but if you are looking for something to have your child practise over the break- Mental Math (quick adding and subtracting) and double digit adding and subtracting with and without regrouping is always a good place to start!

Language- look for our dinosaur reports to come home. I also have been collecting and making videos using the green screen with the class. I'm hoping that in May we can arrange a time for parents/guardians/grandparents to come in and view all these videos! Students are working on creating a Mixed Beast as another written project that allows them to to go through the writing process.

Enjoy the week!
