A new week begins, and lots of learning is to be acquired!  Here's how we began the third week of April:

1. Assembly - Mr. Morrow spoke about grades k-4 and their behaviour on the stairs going up and down.  I've already talked to the class about this too, but if you would be so kind as to reiterate to your child the importance of safety and kindness when using the stairs, that would be much appreciated!
2. Spelling - Unit 24 - this week's words, other than two math words (centimetre and length), are review.
3. Memory verse - Isaiah 41:10 and Psalm 98:4-5
4. R.W. - we had independent reading and then I read aloud to the class from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
5. Math - we corrected the student's work from Friday, and then went on to our unit review.  There won't be a formal test for this unit.  We're moving on to fractions and decimals later this week!
6. P.E. - with Mr. Banman
7. S.S. - we continued our work on Pioneers, focusing today on the impact of settlements on trading posts and resource towns, as well as positive and negative effects of clearing land for farms.
8. Chapel - led by Mrs. Hills
