Vocabulary Homework

Vocabulary and rhyming work is homework tonight and is due back tomorrow.
Everyone is choosing 5 of the vocabulary words to rhyme with and 3 words to use in a sentence.  Last week we put vocabulary words into alphabetical order and those are glued into the reading journal for reference. We worked for about 40 minutes this morning on this task and I'm sure you will agree with me that that is a sufficient amount of time to complete this activity.

We used the strategy of expanding numbers to subtract today - some of us found it to be a hard strategy to use but in time I am confident that it will be useful.  Once we begin subtracting larger numbers and needing to borrow it will all become clear!  For now trying new things is the sign of a thinker😀


Aussie Rules Football was introduced to us today from the Calgary Kangaroos - we learned three skills required in the game and played a little version of tag using those skills.  Great fun.  Ask your child what they thought!

Scholastic book orders due Thursday December 6 please.

Calgary Public Library book truck is coming tomorrow - bring your library card and check it out!
