Pendant les 2 prochaines semaines chez toi, il y a quelques choses que je veux que vous faites. Premièrement, aidez vos parents quand possible. Rangez votre chambre, aider dans la cuisine, pelleter la neige, sois gentil et patient envers vos membres de famille. Deuxièmement, jouer dehors et faites de l’exercice quand possible. Regardez la neige qui a tombé hier soir! Troisièmement, faites vos devoirs de maths, français et sciences. Essayez de faire un ou deux pages par jour. Finalement, joyeux anniversaire à Colton! Son anniversaire est demain! Parents: I hope you and your family are doing well at home. A few ideas if you’re child is looking for something to do:
Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or are looking for guidance. All the best, Mme Elias
With the recent news of a two week school closure, students have received a work package to work on at-home. Students have received math worksheets to practice Multiplication and Division as this is the unit we are supposed to start after the March Break and will continue once they return. Students will also receive some French Reading and Writing activities as well as a Science booklet on Forces. Students are encouraged to continue to read in English and French throughout the two weeks at home and are encouraged to access Lalilo.com on an ipad or computer (school code: MQRARC). If you have any questions about the homework, I will be available from March 23rd-April 3rd via email to answer any questions at [email protected]. Google Translate can usually give you an idea of instructions if the French vocabulary is too difficult. Students are encouraged to complete as much as possible, but I understand under these circumstances, everyone's situation will be different. The resources sent home are to help students continue learning from home and make the transition back to school easier once they return. The homework will not be marked as an evaluation. If your child was absent on the last day of school, the documents are available to print below.
Rube Goldberg Machine: Students will be constructing their Rube Goldberg Machine at-school on Thursday. Just to clarify, they do not have to complete this project at home, they are just encouraged to practice and experiment with different materials at home so they have some ideas ready when they build at-school on Thursday. They can bring materials from home with parent permission. Lalilo - https://student.lalilo.com/?language=en#/ is a great website for students to practice French. They have learned how to use it at school and are encouraged to practice at-home as well. The class code is MQRARC and each student has their own account. Math Test - The money math test will be corrected and sent home later this week once all students are done. There will also be an end of unit evaluation attached to the test. Please view the "Math Test Money Visuals" document below to help with corrections if needed. We have begun our unit on fractions! March Break - Next week! Students are encouraged to read in French and English over the break as well as complete their last mission of Planet Protectors: Go Car Free (due Tuesday March 24th. Billets de Bravo - Students have been working together for quite some time now and as a class have collected 600 "Billets de Bravo!". This is a great achievement! We decided that the prize will be a little "store" where they can purchase small candies or prizes using fake money. The store will be open this Friday afternoon for students to "buy" their prizes. Some students asked if they could bring in an item to donate to the store (e.g. chocolates or candy). They are definitely welcome to but not required to. If you wanted to donate a little something, please make sure it is nut free. Merci beaucoup! Math Test Visuals - these are here so your child can make corrections to their math test at home.
Money Test - Students will complete their test on money on Monday March 9th. Things to practice at home:
Scholastics orders are due tomorrow - online orders only. Due by 9AM. Library - Monday Science Project - Students will be introduced to a science project that we will be completing next week called a Rube Goldberg Machine. See this youtube video for an example of a Rube Goldberg Machine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uDDEEHDf1Y. Students are encouraged to bring materials from home to use for their Rube Goldberg machine and practice making their Rube Goldberg Machine at home. We will be constructing and explaining our Rube Goldberg machine in class on Thursday March 12th. Students will be asked to identify the different forces found in their machine (ex. force of gravity, friction, muscular force, elastic force, magnetic force) Booster Juice orders - due online by Friday March 20th March Break - March 16th-20th |
