Here are some quick updates for our class!
📓 Learning Updates:
📘 Math - We have started learning all about basic fractions!
We have learned that fractions are equal parts of a whole or a set.
The numerator (top number) tells us how many equal parts are being described.
The denominator (bottom number) tells us how many equal parts there are in total in the whole or set. We are practicing how to represent fractions with pictures and numbers. We are learning how to read, write, and say fractions as well, such as one half (1/2), one third (1/3), one fourth (1/4), etc. Help your child to look for fractions around your home, your neighbourhood, and while you are out in the community!

📁 Science - We are in the final stages of our animal research projects! After a week of detailed research, most students have now completed their animal fact file folders. We will also be creating a mini diorama to represent our animals in their habitats. We will be using a kleenex box for our habitat display, along with plasticine to build our animals!
