Day 2

Happy Wednesday SJA families ! 
Please remember that there is no school on Friday and Monday. 

Math
Today in Math we continued our review and took up the SWYK on page 222 and 223 in the textbook. Any question about the math were taken up as a group and worked through together in class. The 2nd review has now been given out to students and the 1st page has been assigned for homework. We will continue to work on it in class and go over in details the questions so that we can be ready for the test next week Tuesday.

In Language we continue to work on writing an information report. Together we have now written a sample and displayed it in class so that students can refer back too at any point.

Also in UOI today we continued on our research of scientists and had a class discussion one each scientist we researched and what each inventor has contributed to our society. Today we had our pros vs cons discussion in class about the light being turned off at 9pm and not turned on again in town until 9am the next morning!

Covid -19 Updates  Hello and Good Morning Everyone, As you are now aware, St. Jude’s Academy will be closed for the next two weeks due to COVID-19. As we try to alleviate the spread of the virus, we understand that situations such as these can make things a little more unpredictable than we would like them to be. At St. Jude’s, we take pride in the fact that we are a close-knit and caring community. In response to COVID-19 we are actively working to ensure the health and safety of everyone while continuing to educate and support our students. We want to ensure that our students will not be impacted by the unfolding events. We will continue to provide education to our students via an online classroom set up after March Break and up until April 5, 2020. Our school building is closed, but education will continue in an online format.   The grade 4 team will post our daily blogs by 9 am.
