LA – Rhyming poems. Have your child explain how an AABB rhyme pattern is different from an ABAB or a ABCB pattern.

MATH – Ask your child what the best unit of measurement would be for:

-the width of a slice of bread, distance to Chilliwack, length of a text book, length of the school field

We start a unit on fractions next week.

SCIENCE – New unit on resources. Ask your child where everything we need to survive comes from.

SOCIALS – Maps of British Columbia. Transferring information from a map is often tricky for kids. Look at a map of BC and ask where Hope is located. What river is it near? Can they find Shuswap Lake or Okanagan Lake? How about our capital city, Victoria? What territory is next to BC and Alaska?

FRENCH – New unit next week.

ART – Some excellent Line Landscape projects!

Lately, there have been some unkind comments made at school and online. Please talk to your child about treating each other with kindness and respect. The students in the class are usually great, but sometimes reminders are helpful. My rule of thumb is, if you wouldn’t say it to your grandma, don’t say it at all.

Have a good weekend! Cheers!
