Math centres

Here are some pictures from the math centres that we did last week. Students were able to practise a bunch of multiplication and division concepts before the big test!

Discovery Block

The grade 5s will be having a discovery block on Friday, February 3rd in the morning.

BYOD or Chromebooks will be available for use. 

Please ask your son/daughter what topic area they will be learning about ☺

Long division

We will begin long division next week. Please encourage your children to review this challenging concept at home. The following video is a great help!

Scholastic Book Orders

Scholastic has recently added a shipping fee of $5.00 for any orders that fall below $25.00. For this reason, I will no longer be putting in multiple orders throughout the month, but one mass order at the end of each month. So just a heads up, if your son/daughter sends in money for an order, it may be a few weeks instead of a few days for books to come in from now on. Students will write the due date for each order form in their agendas. Thank you.

Lattice multiplication

We've been learning some new ways to multiply. Here is a video that teaches the LATTICE method.

Reminders

This week, the good copies of the mystery stories are due on FRIDAY.
We will also be having a multiplication quiz on FRIDAY.
