Teacher’s corner:
1. Please sign your math quiz and
return to Mme tomorrow.
2. Where did your ancestors immigrate from to Canada?
(Be ready by Wednesday)
Social
studies:
For our history unit, that will start after the Spring break, we are asking
that students find out about how their ancestors came to Canada, what
generation and when. It will help us to have a conversation about how Canadian
identity was pieced together. We ask that the students have that information by
Wednesday.
3. Book report is due this Thursday.
Math:
This week we continue working on long division. The
two strategies that we have been exploring are “box division” and the algorithm.
For the algorithm, we are using mnemonic device: Dad, Mom, Sister, Brother,
Rover to help us remember the steps. We also discussed the meaning of remainder
for word problem solving. Students will be doing exercises from math books to
help strengthen the strategies and practice word problems.
Please see below what the strategies look like.
