Special Event in the Skies tonight!

Try to look up tonight, if you are allowed out of bed at this time. Check out what you will see! A rare
Blood-Moon Lunar Eclipse, an event that will not happen again until 2033. It should be visible starting around 10pm! I will take photos for the class!

WOW!

It's just like we built in class with our Base Ten set...but now we can see how big it could get!

Yikes! Homework

Homework has officially begun!

Grade 4 students-Chose a duotang colour they liked, and loaded a practice in place value page inside. Some students have 2 sheets if they didn't finish a task from last week's review of expanded form. Students have until Friday to work on the assignment.

Grade 5 students- They received a Math Quest textbook. It can stay at home all year until June. Keep it in a safe place. All work is to be answered in the pink toned notebook provided. We are practicing notebooks skills, so the page number and assignment should be labelled well.
Assignment- Read page 4. Do questions 1-29 (all page 4 and page 5). Return pink book only on Friday!

General News

Our fun project---the Time Capsule, came home today. Students have up until Monday Sept 28th to complete/gather items. Math homework begins on Monday. Please watch the Agenda for instructions. Information will also be discussed at the Program Night tomorrow from 7-8pm.

Homework and News

Our class will have our first homework assignment coming home tomorrow. It is a small fun project due Monday September 28th...a Time Capsule. All the items that need to be collected or written about are on the guideline sheet. Please see the Agenda front pouch for the information page.

Field Trip- All the grade 4-6 classes are scheduled for a trip to the Richmond Fair this Friday. Please watch the weather are dress properly. Bring lunch and water. No money is allowed. We need many volunteers for a class of 35 to keep the adult to child ratio smaller. Please come if you can. Return the permission slip, volunteer slip and medical form ASAP, hopefully by Wednesday, so we can assign adults to student groups ahead of time.

WELCOME!

Welcome to a new school year in Miss.Sturgeon's class. This blog will be used to inform about things happening in our room, as well as provide homework links and assignments. As stated in the information that came home today, we are trying to go paperless, and need to find out the internet access for those of you at home. Then we can proceed with digital homework and photocopies for students who cannot access websites at home. This may take a bit of time, so we may need to begin the year with a folder of worksheets then transition to the internet as we get a digital program off the ground!

We have 35 students in our class this year, which is very large.

Homework assignments will be written in agendas on Mondays, and usually due by Friday.

There is no regular homework this week.

A TIME CAPSULE project will be coming home shortly and due by the end of September. Watch for the agenda info!

Parent Info night will be held next week Tuesday Sept. 16th from 7pm until 8pm.
