Spelling - test on Friday, kids doing the challenge words need to remember to hand in their sentences by Friday as well.

Hot Lunch orders due in by Friday.

November 18th
As I mentioned to the kids yesterday, we'll be having a short quiz on the water cycle on Monday. It's not a major thing, but the kids might want to take their science books home and look over what we've done so far.

Tuesday, Nov 9th
Today's homework is just finishing up the questions for chapter 4 of our novel, Bridge to Terabithia.
Reminders:
Westwood's Remembrance Day assembly tomorrow, Wednesday, after recess (c. 10:45)
A new duo-tang for music
No school on Thursday, Friday or Monday, due to Remembrance Day, District 43 non-instructional day, and Pro D day respectively.
Please help you children remember to bring ALL school books and supplies to school each day. Language Arts books and recorders were forgotten by several kids today. It's really awkward for a student if we're going something in class and he or she can't participate. Thank you.

Hi everyone,
Ms Corazza finally has access to this blog, so you might see twice as many postings!
For today, Monday, students have math homework if they didn't finish it in class.
grade 4 - pages 12-15
grade 5 - pages 25-26
Students have a French speaking test on Wednesday.
Students will need another duotang. Sorry, I know I told the kids we had all we needed, but I forgot about music.
Also, there will be no spelling test this week.
We started learning about recorders today in music. Each student was assigned a recorder that will be his or hers to use until our unit is finished. These recorders belong to the school and need to be treated responsibly and with respect. Students are welcome to bring the instruments home to practice, but it's really important that they bring them back to school every day. I don't have any extras to lend! And just in case you were wondering, each recorder was disinfected and washed before I gave them out.

Monday, Nov. 1st
Welcome to November! It's hard to believe that we've been back at school for two months already.
Spelling lists were given out today. Test on Friday, as usual. The four kids doing the challenge list have to define each word and/or write a sentence showing me that they know what it means. The ten sentences are due on Friday.
Homework today is to reread chapter one of our new novel, Bridge to Terabithia. There are also four questions to be answered in the kids' Language Arts books.
We are having a little math quiz tomorrow, to summarize the work we've been doing on number patterns and relations. It's just a small quiz and we did a thorough review today, which is why I didn't give the students much notice.
