Ruby Tuesday

Agenda:
1 - Science homework - Due Thursday - Take a pencil rubbing of 1 tire from 1 vehicle at your home. (Do not go to a neighbours to do this homework) Ensure the vehicle is off and in park - do this with parent supervision please!  Please include the make and model of the vehicle you got your tire rubbing from.
Question 4 and 5 may need to be answered back at school if you don't have different types of vehicles to compare the types of tires.
You can also try your own bicycle if you would like.
2 - Read 20 - 30 minutes everyday - this includes reading to self, reading to others and listening to reading.
3- School Council notice came home yesterday to the Oldest and Only students. 
4- This Friday is a PD day


Mark your calendars - we are heading to the Nose Hill Public library on Friday Nov. 2nd



We are currently looking at Place Value in math (Grade 5 - will look at numbers up to One Million and grade 6s will look at numbers greater than One Million.) We want to ensure we understand the place and value of large numbers prior to looking at operations involving numbers.
So, over the next few weeks you can do a few things to feel ready for operations - practice your basic multiplication facts!!! Grade 5 - please practice your basic facts up to 10x10 and grade 6s please practice your basic facts up to 12x12.
Here are a few resources to try at home:
