April Newsletter

Dear Parents,

We hope that this newsletter finds you all well. It is hard to believe that we are beginning term 3. Where has the time gone?  The Grade 4 students have all worked hard during first and second term and now the last term awaits us.  Again, we would like to thank you for your support in your child’s learning.

Language Arts:

This term we will be studying the novel, James and the Giant Peach, written by Roald Dahl. The students will be focusing on their reading powers while reading this novel. The reading powers are making connections, asking questions, visualizing, inference and transformation.  We will also focus on our reading fluency by ensuring that we read with expression, watch our pace, volume and sound out words that we might not recognize.  We will also be learning new vocabulary words that will help us when we do writing activities or answer comprehension questions.

Roald Dahl was a spy, ace fighter- pilot, and medical inventor.  He remains the World’s No. 1 storyteller.  He was also the author of:

 

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Matilda

The BFG

 

and many more brilliant stories!

Students are encouraged to visit their local public library or download  e-book versions of their favourite stories.

 

Social Studies:

This term, the students will expand on their knowledge of the First Nations culture and learn about the changes and consequences from European contact.  They will explore the different perspectives and the issues that arose throughout the Fur trade.
