Classwork and Homework

As-salamu-alaikum wa Rahmatullah

Dear Parents,


Language: Students are learning how to form compound sentences. I wrote simple sentences on the board and students used the conjunctions but & and to form compound sentences. Students took turns to say 2 simple sentences and each student would write the correct conjunction on his/her white board to join them. Each student wrote three compound sentences on his/her board and shared it with the class.

Math: Students completed a worksheet where they added nickels and dimes by counting by 5's and 10's.

Library: We went to the library in our language time and Tr. Nancy gave each student a worksheet where they wrote what they already know about their mammal and what they want to know. Students also wrote down questions that they will research (what, where, when, why, who and how). 

Please do not start working on the project with your child now.They took their books home to complete their worksheets about their mammal.They need to copy down all the 5W"s in the what they want to know (part of KWL chart). Students can read about their mammal to learn more about it, but Tr. Nancy and I are working with the class to teach them the steps of research.

Gym: We are running 21 gym Hijra laps! Today we ran 5 laps around the gym. We have 16 to go!
We played Green Light/ Red Light. We made 4 groups and took turns to race each other!

Islamic Studies: We finished reading  "EiD Around the World" in our Islamic Studies book.
