Happy New Year!

What a start we have had to 2014!

I hope everyone enjoyed the extra day or two off this week!  We had blowing snow until after midnight last night and our roads were still closed this morning in Grey County.

 As much as I enjoyed a couple of extra days at home, I was very happy to see all those smiling faces today.  I am so happy that our class had such a great holiday.  I was very pleased that we were able to attend Climb Every Mountain musical at Jean Vanier High School today.

When we returned to school, we jumped right in our new units.

In Measurement, we have begun our section on time.  We will focus on elapsed time, but we started off by reading time to the hour, minute and second, working with the 12-hour and the 24-hour clock.  Some students will have to work a little harder than others in this unit because, due to our digital world, they are not accustomed to analogue clocks.  Our unit will deal with both analogue and digital time.  Elapsed time will also comprise of elapsed time in years, months, and days. You can assist your child in this unit by providing him/her with real life situations involving telling time and calculating elapsed time.  Students can improve their conversions from digital to 24-hour clock with the following activities STOP THE CLOCK! or Convert.

In English, as described to students before the holidays, we have begun our public speaking unit.  Students have been a assigned a Dramatic Reading.  Presentations will begin next Thursday.  Some students have elected to participate in our Public Speaking Competition instead, or in addition to the Dramatic Reading.   Speech presentations begin on January 20th.  Your child would benefit from your feedback on his or her presentation skills.  The more practice students have in front of an audience, the more comfortable they will feel on presentation day.  So please have the whole family participate in this learning experience.

We are heading full throttle into 2014!

Remember ....

Please do not forget that we have a play to attend tomorrow at Jean Vanier...if you have not yet brought in your permission form and payment, please do not forget it for tomorrow...if you lost your permission form, at least bring in a signed letter from your parents giving you permission to walk to, and attend the play at Jean Vanier school.  The cost is $5.00.  Hope to see you all tomorrow, but the forecast does not look promising.  Happy Snowday!
