Parallel, Perpendicular & Intersecting Lines Song



With a new season just around the corner, let’s SPRING into reading!  


Our 5th annual Copperfield Read-A-Thon will take place from March 6th - 17th and you can already begin to gather sponsors to collect pledges for books read by students. The amount that sponsors choose to donate is up to you! Throughout our Read-A-Thon, students will have the opportunity to participate in having guest readers join their classes virtually and in person. These guest readers may include a variety of readers such as CBE professionals, emergency service personnel, authors, artists, and athletes. Top fundraisers from each grade will be put into a draw for a prize. There will also be fun prizes for our top readers, including the chance to be the principal for a day! Please read through the pledge form that was sent home with students for more information on specific dates and how to collect cash or cheques from your sponsors and return them to the school. All money raised will go to literacy resources for our school. We encourage all students to participate for the love of reading!

 Happy Star Wars day!  Today we finished our read-aloud novel "Heartwood Hotel 2: The Greatest Gift". Ask your child what they wrote when answering the questions "What was your favourite/least favourite part?" "Would you recommend this book?" "Who was your favourite character?" This book had a winter theme and there are two more books in the series- the next one we will read is set in the spring. The series is filled with interesting animal facts and messages about friendship and belonging.  Tomorrow is a PD Day, so we are wishing you all a happy weekend.

Over the next few weeks, your child will be learning about estimating, measuring, and comparing lengths using centimetres, metres, yards and inches. To reinforce the concepts your child is learning at school, you and your child can work on some at-home activities such as these: • Ask your child to show you how a fingertip can be used to estimate 1 centimeter or a hand span can be used to estimate 10 centimeters (1 decimeter). Use these known amounts to estimate lengths of objects with your child. • Your child has learned to estimate 1 meter using his or her steps. Have your child use a metre stick to measure the number of steps you take to travel 1 m. Then you and your child can use your “meter steps” to estimate distances around your home. Tomorrow is Fun Lunch. Students will eat in the classroom and then play outside. Thank you to all our volunteers that help make this possible.

  Multiplication Arrays Multiplication arrays are all around us. Feel free to watch this video with your child and look for arrays in your home. It could be a simple as bricks on a wall, windows in a row or trees planted in a field. Our work in multiplication continues every day. Please practice the multiplication table at home on a regular basis.  Our mealworms are beginning to pupate. We are actively watching their daily changes. Ask your child what they noticed during our observation time today. What do they wonder will happen next and what surprised them them most so far?
