Day 3

Good afternoon SJA families 

 Happy Monday and congratulations to Rayen! He is our new star of the week... 

 Math: 

 Today in Math we looked at rounding decimals and adding decimals. Students had a chance to come up and answer math questions before we began our lesson to see how far and just how much they know about ordering and rounding decimals. Check the quick review below for homework help!
Inquiry into Language:

The majority of the class completed their good copy of their speech over the weekend. Today, they spent part of their morning practicing so that they could memorize their speech. We went over a few helpful tips to remember when trying to memorize their speech:

The grade 4 in class competition will be held February 4th/5th.

The Annual Oral Competition for grades 4 - 8 will be held on Friday, February 7th. All speeches need to be memorized and should be within 3 - 5 minutes. 

Unit Of Inquiry:

Today the began working on their summatives for their unit: Who we are. Students were given their summative packages as a point of reference as they work their way through their assignment. Just a friendly reminder that all summative materials are to be provided by the students. Summative tasks will be due Friday January 31st.

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. Our blogs will describe the learning expectations and activities for each day. To make this pos
