Alien Inline

We will be rollerblading with Alien Inline on March 15, 16 & 19. If you would like, you may bring your own helmet.




A.M.A. (Ask Me About)
- Today we began learning about Nunavut by exploring some of the geography. We found Nunavut on Google Earth and also learned about glaciers and the tundra. What is the tundra? What did I learn so far? What else can I discover?

- Students have been working hard on practicing expanding numbers using base ten blocks and the place value chart. This practice will help us with breaking down numbers so we can add them together. We are hoping to start this strategy with two digit addition next week. Over the weekend, please review THIS video with your child and practice expanding numbers into tens and ones.

Here is more of an explanation of the strategy we would like students to begin to use next week. Feel free to come up with your own numbers at home to practice this strategy.

Students can also use or draw base ten blocks to help support our visual learners. Here is an example below


Thank you for supporting our learning! :)
