Hi Folks!
Happy fake Friday! No school for students tomorrow as it is Parent-Teacher. Just wanted to let you know quickly of a few things before the weekend....
#1) Students have some writing pieces we are completing before Christmas. Grade 3 students are learning about the government and are writing an opinion piece of a rule or law they'd like to change. Their "homework" this weekend is to come up with something they'd like to change in the house, school, province etc. Ex. bedtime, screen time, chewing gum, driving age etc. Grade 4 students are learning about Canada and will be doing research on a province or territory other than NB. Their "homework" this weekend is to narrow down a province they'd like to learn more about.
#2) There's a pair of "Outbound" black winter boots that have been left at the school by our hooks. If they're your child's, please let me know!
All for now!

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!
Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is JERSEY day! And, there is no school for students on Friday.
Also, students were excited to bring home their first BIG piece of writing of the year. About half the class was finished so I sent those home today. Please sign and return. If you didn't receive one today, you will in the next few days. Math tests will head home tomorrow to be signed and returned too.
All for now!

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.

Hi folks!
Happy Halloween! We had a packed day harvesting the last of the garden - carrots galore! We brought them in and made carrot fries while completing some work. Ended the day with homemade cupcake decorating as a treat from Mme Flannagan and I. Mme Andrée-Anne put on a special presentation as Sorcifée, a witch who lost her broom. Phew!
Last week was busy with Halloween events, pumpkin walk and library. I swear we do "real" work too! Check out some fun highlights on our website. Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)
Don't forget this week: Wednesday - skating from 9-10 @LBA. Skates and helmet required!
Congrats to Claire C who won our first monthly prize! She has chosen to steal my chair for 10 days! We reset the prize draw tomorrow with the start of the new month.
All for now!

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.
