Happy Friday!

We started our morning reading with our Little Buddies from Ms. Noel's class:)

Math - Today we marked and reviewed rounding and comparing numbers to the millions; we didn't get to the adding columns so both sides of the worksheet have been assigned for homework due Monday.
*Don't forget to sign your child's math quiz (they got it back yesterday) indicating that you have seen it.  We will have a short quiz next week on rounding and comparing numbers.

Music - Students continue to learn songs on the ukelele with Mr. Rogers.  One of these days I am going to sit in with my own (my aunt's) ukelele!

Social Studies - Government & Democracy was the focus today.  We watched a short video,  filled in some information sheets, then completed a review of Canada's federation, and Canada's government.
If you are checking their work at home, I expect upper case letters where appropriate, and correct spelling.

The videos are on www.studentvote.ca , a really great resource we are using while learning about our government and the upcoming Federal election.

A notice went home today about a 'We to Me Thanksgiving Food Drive'.  We will be collecting all week.
We are also collecting donations for the Terry Fox throughout the week.  Thanks if you have already contributed.  I told the class that if they raise $150, they can throw a pie in my face:(

Have a super weekend!
