9100 Pages


I can't believe that we reached our goal this month! Great work students on reaching 9100 pages! Can we make it to 10,000 pages next month?

Remember to keep reading at home! The more practice that you get...the better reader you will be in the long run!!

Perimeter and Area


Hey students!

We have been working really hard in class on perimeter and area. I wanted to look for some websites so you can get some extra practice at home. These websites that I have listed are really good and they help to strengthen your understanding of both perimeter and area. Take some time and check them out!!




That is all for now! Remember to practice because we have a quiz on Friday!!

TLCP #2


Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to give a quick update of what is happening in the Grade Four classroom. We have finished our first TLCP unit on summarizing! It is amazing how far the students have come since first beginning the unit in September.

This month we will be starting our new TLCP unit on making connections. This is going to be a great unit and I know that the students are going to really enjoy it. Students will have the opportunity to use technology throughout this unit to deepen their understanding of making connections.

In Math, we have been working on measurement. Students have been designing a small city/town to practice their ruler skills and their knowledge of perimeter. A lot of the activities have been hands on. To strengthen the students ability at measuring, it would be great if student's could have opportunities at home to measure various items using millimeters, centimeters, and meters.

Report Cards will be send home very shortly. Please return the interview request form as I am looking forward to meeting with all of the parents/guardians.

That is all for now!
