January Big Ideas...

Reading – We are learning to be meaning makers by summarizing important ideas with supporting details in a variety of texts. We are learning to engage with the texts we read by synthesizing what we read. We are also learning to be text analyzers by looking at how texts we read, can change the way we think about certain issues and topics.

Writing – We are learning to generate many strong supporting details to explain our main ideas. We are learning to use interesting sentences and word choice in our writing pieces. We are learning to add voice to our writing to match the purpose and audience of our writing pieces.

Oral – We are learning to listen to understand and respond appropriately in a variety of situations for a variety of purposes.

Media – We are learning to understand the features of a variety of media texts. We are learning to identify the purpose, audience and messages media forms convey. We will critically look at features of an advertisement and create our advertisements for the e-books we created on Storybird.  

Math – We are learning to solve problems involving multiplication and division. We will move to patterning and algebra by mid to end of January.  

Science- We are learning the unique characteristics and properties of rocks as a result of how they were formed. We are learning how their properties determine how we use rocks in our society.

Social Studies – We are learning to compare and contrast ancient civilizations of the past with present day Canadian Society. We will begin our new unit in social studies by mid to end January.

Arts –We are learning to use elements of Drama by writing in role.   

Health – We are learning to make healthy and informative decisions regarding bullying issues.

Welcome to January 2015!

Dear Families,

Happy New Year! I hope all families had a restful and relaxing winter break.

With the arrival of 2015, students have been reflecting on the goals we set for ourselves in the Fall term. Students have been reflecting on their progress and success and have set new goals for the rest of the winter term. I invite you to ask your child to share the goals/ resolutions they set for themselves and discuss strategies/ways their goals can be supported at home.

In this class update newsletter, you will find important information about our class and the big ideas in our learning for weeks coming.

If you any questions/concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at the school or write me a note in your child’s agenda !

Happy January,

Ms. Chung J
