Grade 5

Happy New Year to all and welcome to 2016!

As you know, we are quickly approaching the date of February 1st, which is when
the grade 4 and 5s will be combined to make a split class with Mme. Ho as a homeroom teacher. When this switch occurs, the intensive French will continue but
only 300 minutes a week and the students will begin the other subject areas. We
will be working closely together to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible.
French: In January, we will begin working on narrative texts in French and start
talking about the clothing we wear in different seasons as well as review all the
material we have covered thus far.
Math: In January, we will be working on 2 by 1 digit multiplication, we will start
using fractions, continue working with double bar graphs, use algebra to solve
problems involving multiplication and review our division strategies.
Please continue to check the agenda for daily math homework and reading log.
