March 9

This week is the last week of March Break so we have a busy week finishing up units. If your child is going on vacation early and missing school please write a note and let us know so we can prepare!

Science- We're finishing our pulley and gear unit this week. Instead of a test the students will be creating a final project. This should start Wednesday.

Health- We have started talking about Substance Abuse this week. We have been talking about tobacco use and how tobacco is created. We will also be finishing our Kindness Activity this week.

Gym- The gym is closed at the beginning of the week but we will be finishing badminton by the end of the week.

Art- We finished our drama presentations and are back to a week of art before March Break. We will be creating a project that will be displayed for Education Week.

I hope everyone has a wonderful last week of class and a happy March Break!

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Today we welcomed back the students and it was great to see their smiling faces. A new year means new projects are getting started in our morning class. Gym- We have just started our new floorball unit. Students are very excited to play the closest sport we have to hockey this year! Health- We started a Kindness Project in our class today. As your child how we are showing kindness to other students in our class. We started with two students today and will be doing two more every Health class. We will also be focusing on cyber-bullying and how to be safe online. Science- This week we will be starting our pulley and gears unit. Students have been asked to start thinking about where we see pulleys and gears in our everyday lives. Art- Students will be starting an Artist research project on Wednesday.

January 20-24

This week we have a short but busy week in the grade 4 class. Art- Wednesday is our last day to work on our Artist project in class before they are due next week. Presentations are next Wednesday and all information is on Hapara. Any work not done by Wednesday becomes homework. Science- This week we are researching pulley systems. Students will be choosing one of their choice to research on Wednesday and write about. Gym- We are starting Handball this week. It was a game not many students are familiar with. After our first day they are loving learning the rules. It helps when there's a magic number (3) that fits in to all the rules. Health- We are continuing our Kindness Project and discussing anti-bullying and online safety. The students have done a great job reviewing tips on how to stay safe online. The Kindness Project is about halfway done now. Once all students have had a chance to complete it I will be printing off the photos for students to take home.

February 3-7

We have another short week ahead. Here's a look at what the 4's will be working on.  Science- We have our pulleys quiz on Wednesday. Students all have been given review sheets last week. If they forget them or lose them there are also copies on Hapara. We have gone over in class how to access Hapara at home and there are instructions posted a few posts down (under Art Presentation tomorrow). We will then be talking about gears the rest of the week and how they are used in our lives. Gym- We have started a unit on badminton today. Students are excited to try a sport so different than the ones that we have been doing since I started. Health- We are continuing working on our kindness project and have started kindness posters. Each student drew the name of another student and must draw a picture of their favourite things and write a sentence about what they do that is kind. Art- We are starting to work on drama this week. Wednesday we will be playing a few games to g...
