Cold Weather Clothing
Please make sure your child comes to school with proper outdoor clothing. This includes snowpants, boots, hats, mitts scarves etc. Unless it is extremely cold or wet everyone goes outside for recess. If your child is too ill to go outside please keep them at home. A pair of indoor shoes that can remain at school is essential. If your child is unable to tie laces independently please send velcro shoes.
Take Home Math
Today your child is bringing home the first question in our Take-Home Math program. Solutions are due back each Monday. We will take up each question together in class. A rubric is located at the back of the book so you can see how questions are graded. This is an opportunity for you to see the expectations of the Grade 3 Math program and to give you child exposure to many different types of questions and math language. The questions are similar to those given on EQAO in May. Please support you child but do not do the question for them. Have them try to think it through. We are more interested in the thinking rather than the final answer.
