We are learning some exciting things this month!

Language Arts
We have finished reading Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes as a class and will continue on with independent reading.

We have wrapped up our Halloween narratives and will focus on writing letters and persuasive writing in November.

Math
Having finished up our first Number Sense unit, we have launched our Patterns and Relations unit. This will be an exciting unit where students learn how to identify patterns and relations, and solve problems through them.

We will continue with Kicking It for our basic facts practice. I encourage you to continue practicing these facts at home.

Social
Our Fossil Heritage unit is done and we have started to learn about Alberta's natural resources. This unit gives students the chance to explore how important natural resources are to a community and how they change the communities and economy.

Science
We have wrapped up our Waste and Our World Unit and are moving into learning about Wheels and Levers.

Have a great week!
