Race Against Drugs
We listened to some excellent information today on our class trip. Each student received a letter from the organizers outlining the main ideas of each "pit-stop". Please review the information with a parent.
Special thank you to Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Prince who helped supervise today.

Math
What does congruent mean? What does similar mean? 


Grade 4, when you draw your shapes on the dot paper, don't cut them out exactly on the side of the shape. Cut around the shape then glue them in your notebook neatly.

Grade 4, we have to go over sorting quadrilaterals tomorrow as a group, so keep practicing at home. No assessment tomorrow.

Grade 5, measure the angle in all four regular polygons (crackers) and write a clue for each.
