Gr.44 Sept. 3-7


Group 44
Hello Group 44! Here we go with our first homework blog for the year. If there is anyone who doesn’t have pages PE 9 and PE 10 signed, please do so this evening. Remember to return the orange Health Forms.

Students will need their red math duotangs for the Wednesday/Friday switch periods during French week.

HAHSA Movie Night on Friday September 7.

On Thursday we will have logged on and activated the SWL student account on our Google Chromebooks. I would ask that the students log on at some point this weekend to play a Grammar game that goes with our lessons this week. (It will only be posted Friday).
Using the Google Chrome browser (preferable), they type: classroom.google.com in the address bar. Their username is their student number ex: 12345@swlsb.ca. Password is their student number. They will enter my class group and use the link provided to play the game. As discussed at information night, this is a private group and no students other than group 44 will have access to it.
*PLEASE CHECK CLASS DOJO EVERY WEEKEND FOR UPDATES ON BEHAVIOUR*

Welcome Groups 43 & 44! Ms.Telishewsky’s Grade 4 Blog



A big hello and welcome to all my new students and parents for the 2018/2019 school year!!! I am the homeroom teacher for group 44 (room 201) as well as the Math and English Language Arts instructor for groups 43 & 44.

During the school year, I will be posting homework and announcements on this blog. I will update it during the week if necessary. Mme Gallant and I will continue working on The Paper Friendly Classroom. We each have a class set of Google Chromebooks we will be using regularly in class. Some activities will be assigned through Google Classroom; an educational free web based platform and learning network that we will set up at school. Students can access their work from anywhere using the Google Classroom app or signing in on a computer. I encourage you to use the link found on this blog page to learn more about it. I will be getting the students started on it next week.

I am sending home an invitation for both students and parents to make a Class Dojo account. You will be able to keep up to date with your child’s behaviour and receive messages from me.
*School fees must be sent in this week*

Groups 43 & 44: Gym will be on Tuesday and Friday
                              (An indoor pair of running shoes are necessary)
                             Library: Monday

Please read the agenda this week. Fill in the student information area. Go over the rules with your child. Sign all the appropriate areas: pages PE-9 & PE-10. Please ensure you read and sign the SWL Computer Policy and Online Safety link.

Please label the Language Power Now and Math books. The Numbers Reference Book may be kept at home for studying.

Notes:
· Scholastic will be my responsibility for both groups. I will send the envelope home for both French and English. Remember Scholastic only accepts cheques or you may pay online. No CASH please.
· Please bring in a reusable water bottle (plastic if possible) every day.
Let us make 2018/2019 a wonderful school year!
