During the month of September, we have been spending time getting to know each other and establishing the routines that provide a positive, productive and healthy learning environment. The students are responding well to these expectations.
We have begun learning about the various types of angles and how to accurately measure them using a protractor. We are learning that angles are all around us; at home and in our environment. We will continue to use a protractor to learn how to draw angles of a certain measure.
We have started our learning about our solar system which is always a popular topic. As we progress though our investigation, we will be learning about terrestrial and Jovian planets, the sun, s=eclipses and other solar system concepts.
We have also been looking at how to write sentences that express a complete thought which will help us understand how to write a proper paragraph. We have been working on the geography of Canada by identifying and properly labelling the provinces, territories and major bodies of water within and surrounding Canada. As you can tell, the past few weeks have been busy!
Several studies have shown that supportive parents/guardians are crucial to the level of success a student experience. We are looking forward to a very rewarding academic year!
