Dear Parents,
Progress Reports are coming home tomorrow, right before Halloween! Hopefully they aren't too scary! Please sign and return ASAP. Information about Interviews will be coming home shortly.
Friday is Black and Orange colour theme day. If you wish to send in any treats for the class, feel free! We will have a short 'fun block' in the morning before lunch: a daily physical education in-class dance on Friday to the Monster Mash and the Thriller song and some Halloween Games! FUN!
If you go Trick or Treating, be safe and have a wonderful evening.
-------------- --Monty and Miss. Sturgeon

Homework
Homework this week will be worksheets for both Grade 4 and 5. Students will have some math patterning AND some "fun" Halloween vocabulary worksheets.
Tests and Quizzes Duotang- Math tests will be coming home. They need to stay in the duotang and be signed and returned by Thursday. A reminder note will come home Thursday if it has not been returned. These important duotangs will be slowly filled all year with mostly math (and some language and science) tests and quizzes. They need to remain at school, but will come home frequently with new assessments.

CLASS DOJO IS HERE!!!
Dear Parents,
We will be using the wonderful Class Dojo website to track our class learning skills. It is a fun, interactive program that we use in class to give instant news about a child's behaviours. Feel free to check out our class at anytime. Information will be sent home with your child's code so that you can login and check out your child's at-school attitude! Students can change their avatar at home and you can even reward your child after a day of good progress! Excellent for communication!
They will receive their codes when they earn twenty points...it is a reward to change their avatar!
Please note, the progress of our class is seen daily in class by all the students. We cheer each other on this way, and keep track of how our friends are doing. Similarly, at home, you will be able to view exactly what we see in class all day....our whole class. If you do not like other parents seeing your child's rewards and how we are doing, we can change your child's name to a nickname to keep them anonymous. Nothing embarrassing is listed! It includes things such as 'changed shoes to keep floors clean' or 'participated well' or 'didn't blurt an answer'.
Stay tuned for your code!!

Homework- STUDY GUIDE!
This week's homework is to study the test STUDY GUIDE that is sent home on Tuesday. Students will fill it in during class, check that the information is correct on the Smartboard, and use it as a test guide. The test is based on the guide, so if your child reviews all the sample questions, and can answer them, they will do very well on the test! Please work with your child to review. Many parents like to make 'fake' test questions for their child at home, based on the style that is on the guide. This is a great idea if you have the time! The unit test is on Friday.
Also Friday- Picture Day...so dress for success (whether on a photo, or for your math test!)
