What will we learn about in October?
French Language Arts: We will work
on our writing and speaking skills through our new theme, “C’est l’halloween”.
Here is a great website to visit for extra French reading activities : http://www.duplaisiralire.com/
English Language Arts: We will be
starting the novel “Charlotte’s Web” by E. B. White. We will study vocabulary,
make predictions about the story as we read along and do multiple choice
activities.
Math: We will
continue to practice our number sense up to 100. We will focus on the
following: identifying odd and even numbers; counting by 2’s, 5’s and 10’s;
identifying place value and representing numbers using “tens” and “ones” blocks.
We will also review addition and subtraction strategies with answers to 18.
Here are some great websites to practice number sense:

Social Studies: We will be
exploring the landforms and geography of Iqaluit, Saskatoon and Meteghan. You
could assist your child with this at home by looking at pictures of each of
these communities at the Library or online.
Science: We will
conclude learning about spiders.
Health: We will
continue exploring safety and healthy habits.
Art: This month,
we will create art pieces for Thanksgiving and Halloween. We
encourage your child to bring an old t-shirt to be worn over clothes while
water color painting.
Religion: The students
will be introduced to The Apostles’ Creed and begin to understand the four
parts of the Mass.
Have a good day!
