Here's what we were up to last week:

Math: we are still working on patterning in both groups, and have started using a new Math program called MathUP, created by Marian Small. We have been looking at geometric patterns, number patterns, growing, shrinking and repeating patterns, and using patterns to solve problems. We are also looking to find the pattern rule, and define the 10th, 23rd or 62nd term.

Here are some links to activities you can do with your child, from the MathUp program:

Grade 4: Sum It Up lesson summary; What's The Core game

Grade 5: Sum It Up lesson summary; Rolling For Tiles game

Language: The Gr. 4 students are finishing their All About Me presentations, and the Gr. 5 students are working on their Haunted House Sale persuasive writing activity.

Reminders:

-progress reports will be coming home Thursday, along with information on how to book a parent-teacher interview for Thursday, Nov. 15, should you wish to. If you feel you need more than a 10 minute interview, please contact me so we can arrange a before or after school appointment time to meet.

-the Bible Blessing and Presentation ceremony is Tuesday morning at 9:15

-Daylight savings time ends on Sunday morning

-Picture retake day is Monday, Nov. 5. Please let me know if you would like retakes by sending a note either through the blog or in your child's agenda.
