Today the students spent some time learning how to apply the mental math strategy “counting on” with the number 10.  They created addition facts using the number 10.
We are excited that our wreath for our Remembrance Day Ceremony is complete.  This is what it looks like….

We are beginning to learn about “Liquids” in Science. Today the students explored water.  They observed it, felt it and explored it using spoons, beakers, measuring cups and test tubes.  We discussed the importance of water.  Feel free to ask your child what he or she knows about water. What scientific facts can they share with you. The students are learning how to use a Storyboard as a plan for writing stories.  This Board will help them collect story elements prior to writing.  We as class created a class generated Storyboard about a book titled, “Sylvester and the Magic Pebble. It includes a beginning, middle and ending of a story. The students will have this storyboard when writing their own story. Learning Commons - Wednesdays ( Please remember to bring your books back to school). Looking ahead…  Painting something special for the holiday season… Tomorrow - green and red day.

Today we looked closely at the landscape of Iqaluit which is the capital city of Nunavut.  We are creating a class “Google Slide” show together and documenting as well as sketching in our creative journals.  Feel free task your child about this today. The students continue to learn about double digit addition without regrouping.  We discussed two rules today.  First you add the ones and then you add the tens.  We will continue this work tomorrow.  Some students have taken on the challenge to work through double digit addition with regrouping. Learning Commons - Wednesdays ( Please remember to bring your books back to school). Looking ahead…  What landscapes does Iqaluit have? Tomorrow is Popcorn Day again. If you did not bring a toonie today, you are welcome to do so tomorrow. Mrs. Sayani

The students did a self assessment on their “Bird’s Eye View” today.  It was great to see such honesty… Some students even asked to improve their work by going back to it, to add details.  Feel free to ask your child about it tonight. Looking ahead… We are going to be bringing in some experts about our future playground.  Your child is working through his or her Inquiry project about 3D shapes. Important Dates: October 16 - Home Journals were due back today.   October 20 and 21 - Popcorn Day! The cost for the popcorn is a toonie.  Please support our school fundraiser. Mrs. Sayani
