We were super lucky to have Nature NB at our school giving presentations to some classes. We learned about bats and checked out our school's newly installed bat boxes.

Hi folks!
Just wanted to send along a few links for those interested. They're great if children are sick, if they forget their book at school or if you'd like to give a little boost to them.
- Our class website: always being updated with pictures and a copy of emails sent. Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)
- French Literacy website: specific to each child, we review sounds in small groups etc. Lalilo | Teacher dashboard
- Splash Learn: math website specific to each child, review concepts that mirror what is being taught in class. SplashLearn Sign In
Another great site for Math is IXL | Math and English Language Arts Practice. Here are some specific links that we are currently covering in class. Please keep in mind that this site is not specific to NB so grade level content may be off a bit and does not reflect that your child is behind or ahead etc.
Grade 3: IXL | Learn grade 3 math : Place Value #1, 3, 5, 11 and Addition #1
Grade 4: IXL | Learn grade 4 math: Number Sense #1-3, 6 and Addition #4, 7, 10, 18
In both French and English we are beginning our unit writing on a description. Grade 3 they describe themselves. Grade 4 describe someone they admire. We have also continued word work in both languages. Guided reading books continue to be sent home. Grade 3 students also received sight words for each reading level in French from A-I and a board game to go along with them. Feel free to practice as you wish.
Re: Library. We have a tentative plan to visit the Public Library on Wednesday, October 25th. Public library cards will be needed that day. For those that applied a card, the library will have them on hand that day.
If ever you have any questions about your child's progress, never hesitate to reach out.
REMINDERS:
Tuesday, Oct 24th:
Wednesday, Oct 25th: school library books
Thursday, Oct 26th: gym clothes needed
Friday, Oct 27th: gym clothes needed, soccer jamboree for those Grade 4 student involved (memo went home today)
All for now!

Hi Folks!
Our week is off to a fast start as it's already Tuesday. Each night students should be reading their levelled English and French books. School pictures are going home today. The retake date has not been given as of yet. It looks like orders will done online this year.
The Chatham Public Library is slated to reopen next week. Once I have a date set for a visit, I will let you know. In the meantime, if any child does not have a NB public library card and would like one, please let know and I'll send the form home with them.
Students have been working hard in our garden. Check out some photos on our class website: Mme. Robichaud | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca). They are uploading now.
All for now!
