Mid- May letter

Dear Parents,

The month of May is a quite busy one at Humewood when lots of events and filed trips take place. 

On Tuesday, all students in Grades 1-8 participated in Track and Field events at Oakwood Collegiate. Thank you for parents volunteer for joining us on this trip. Ribbons will be handed to students who participated in all 3 activities: 100m running, stand jumping, and long running jumping. Here are some pics: 

Please also find the May Calendar on the website. Note Pizza lunch day - May 27th. 

Curriculum at a glance: 

Math: We have been learning about identifying, adding and subtracting Canadian Money to $1. Next, we are going to focus on Fractions. 

Language: Students have been putting a great effort into completing their story book. I appreciate all your support provided at home in regards to this. In mid-June, we intend to organize and display these story books created by students at the 2 Book Fairs: one with parents from our class , and another one in between other classes at school. More info to come...

Science: We have been learning about Growth and Changes in Animals. 

Please check regularly the red  duo tang for the latest suggested homework ideas.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend,

Mme Paraschiv
