Hi folks!

Have you heard about my fabulous hardworking class? They are pretty great! So great that we will be having a guest speaker in our class tomorrow - a pilot! And, because they are such hardworkers, we will be going for a field trip to the airport this Friday (10-12)! We will be learning about Science concepts such as flight and get to try out a flight simulator while at the airport!

Thank you to everyone who has brought back all the items that have been signed - math and french writing (and soon English writing too). We will be moving on to our next units in the upcoming days. Here's what to expect:

• MATH
  • Grade 3: Addition and subtraction, including regrouping.
  • Grade 4: Multiplication and division, mainly facts for now.
• FRENCH
  • Grade 3: We will be learning about the Government! Their end of unit writing will be an opinion piece.
  • Grade 4: We will be learning about Canada! Their end of unit writing will be an information piece of a province.
• ENGLISH - everyone will be writing a fictional story (possibly a Christmas story or they may have opted for another theme).

A few items: last chance for book orders! Also, the school ticket fundraiser is getting close to being maxed. If you have any purchases at home, get them in fast!

Good luck to any Grade 4 students interested in drama. Auditions start tomorrow! And to grade 4 basketball players - schedules have been sent home. If you have any questions, shout out!

All for now.

Hi folks!

It's a point form week:

• November's challenge was sent home on Friday. The last day to return those Math sheets is November 30th for the prize draw. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
• No school for students on Friday.
• Don't forget to return any public library books. If it's easier, feel free to pass them off to me to return. I go there many times a week!
• We have a new website: je lis, je lis. Passwords are in their agenda and specific levels have been assigned to each student. Feel free to use at home, especially if they forget their French reading book at school.

Our class did AMAZING in the Remembrance day concert. Please check out website for a couple of pictures. Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)

Hi folks!

Book orders have been sent home this week. You can order online (please use classroom code RC198054). You can also order through me! If there's enough interest we can combine our orders together and save on shipping. THANK YOU for supporting your children and the class! Last month we ordered 8 graphic novels!! The "Bad Guys" series in French!

October Math challenge went over great! There were some challenging questions and I love that it opened some conversations about Math up at home. Hopefully no one pulled out their hair! Stay tuned for November's challenge - it will be due on November 30th.

Next week is a 4 day week with no school on Friday (Remembrance Day). Our Remembrance Day Concert with be on Thursday, November 10th @9:30am.

All for now!

Forgot to mention about Halloween treats!

You're welcome to send in treats for the class on Friday, should you choose. As usual, they must be nut-free. We have 21 students in our class.

Hi folks!

Here's a few highlights of our busy classroom:

1. October Challenge: A bright orange page has been sent home with some English word problems and Math facts. This is an optional activity and mirrors what we are completing in class. For students who bring it back by October 31st, they will have their name put into a draw for a prize. Again, this is optional but also a good opportunity to see what we are up to in our Math class.

2. Sport Activities: Please note that afterschool activities such as cross-country and soccer are coming to a close this week. Congrats to all participants and their support teams for getting them to practices and games/meets! You did it!

3. Skating: Our class skating dates are Wednesday, November 2nd and Wednesday, November 30th. We are on the ice from 9-10am both days. A memo will be going home today regarding skates and helmets. Please sign and return. Volunteers are welcome to come tie skates and join in the fun!

4. Homework: Please continue to have your child read in English and French alternately for 10-20 minutes each night. Their guided reading books go home and return each day, along with their French word packs.

5. Halloween & Black Light: More information about these to come! Yes, treats are allowed to be sent in for the students. The exact "rules" on that will be sent home shortly. We have 21 students in our class.

All for now! Phew!

Book orders were sent home last week. You can order and view online through Scholastics Canada. Our class code is: RC198054. There's free shipping for order $50+. If you have a bookorder, you're welcome to send in the correct amount (plus tax) and pool our orders together. If there aren't enough orders, I simply send it home. Worth a shot to save some money! Orders due to the class by October 13th.
