LA – 5-sentence paragraphs. Give your child topic and ask them to write a 5-sentence paragraph.

MATH – Reducing fractions. You can see below that 1/2 is equivalent to 2/4. But how to turn 2/4 into 1/2? By dividing the numerator (top number) and the denominator (bottom number) by the same number. The rule is whatever you do to the top, you do to the bottom.

2/4 = 1/2 because 2 ÷ 2 = 1 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2.

Ask your child to reduce 4/12, 15/20, 3/9.

SCIENCE – Our chapter 8 test is on Thursday next week. review term like natural resource, resource, environmental impact, biodegradable, ecosystem, conservation and the three R’s. Be able to answer the Check Your Understanding questions.

We skate on Monday afternoon from 1pm to 2 pm. If you have your own skates please bring them. All students and adults need to wear a helmet so if you have one, please bring it. If not, The school has helmets and the rec centre has skates, all at no cost. This is a free afternoon skate. I recommend that students bring mitts or gloves. Sometimes kids get cold.
