XtraMath is our daily math fact practice. The students should be on the subtraction level at this point.

If your child is still on addition, please have them practice these facts nightly.

Mathletics

Mathletics is a comprehensive online learning tool with lessons and activities specifically aligned to the Alberta math curriculum. Your child has been assigned activities that align to the lessons taught in class. Please have your child spend some time at home to complete these activities.

  • two ways of sharing

  • division and addition

  • dividing by skip counting

  • division and multiplication

Social Studies


We continued our study of Alberta: The Stories, Histories and People. We learned about the Metis History, Settling in Alberta, and Treaties. We also started a Language Project assessment, creating individual Cree Number Books.

Library


Miss Flecha has been reading Mr. Lemoncello's Library to our class and decided to celebrate "Shelfie Day" by having our class create new book covers for the book. They did a fantastic job!

Valentine Kindness Cards

Valentine's Day aligns perfectly with the theme this month - Random Acts of Kindness. We decided to make our Valentine Cards into Kindness Cards and spread some positive messages and kind words around our class. The students worked hard to create thoughtful and meaningful messages to each other!
