We played a dice game in math this afternoon doing repeated addition and relating it to multiplication. It would be great if your child would play a few rounds at home and explain it to you.

It is expected that your child will bring home the same practice books multiple times to read to help improve fluency. One of the most common errors they are continuing to make is pronouncing the final constantans on words. As a general rule of thumb the only constantans that are pronounces are c, r, f & l. Many students are having a problem with the <s>.

If your child has added sheets in their reading journal they should be practicing what is on them on a nightly bases. (sight words and/or alphabet)

As we move into the final term of grade 3 I will be putting more emphasis on presentation and neatness of work so you may also see the occasional piece of work come home that says "Prends ton temps et décis-les encore." This simply means take your time and do it again.

We had a busy day. The students went skating with Ms. Gallant as I am no longer able to put on my skates. We made baked beans for lunch and most of the students tried them. Baked beans were a staple in many French homes and are a good source of protein. This activity was incorporated into our health and math curriculum as we had to measure and we have been working with the new Canadian Food Guide.

We have been working on a piece of writing about spring and I have asked students to bring home their duo-tang to share their draft. Many have finished their good copy but a few are still working on the draft. This should be done by now.

We have started working with multiplication. We have done a considerable amount of skip counting and have done some work involving repeated addition. Today we did an activity to help the students understand why zero times anything equals zero. They should now add the zero times tables to the list of facts they are practicing.
