Literacy
Please read your book about oil spills with your parents. Think about the things that concern you the most about oil spills and whether the reward (getting the oil) is worth all the risk. This ties in nicely to our discussions on the natural resources in the Arctic Region of Canada.

Math
How do we check if an answer is reasonable? Round the numbers to find an ESTIMATE. If the estimate is close to the actual sum, then it's reasonable.

Half the class will be bringing home the Race to 150 game. Play the game with you parents, brother, sister or friend.

Reminders

  • If you still need the names of the students in the class, find the February 7th post.
  • Don't forget about all the wonderful events going on tomorrow!
  • Parents, if you want to come and lend a hand on Pancake Tuesday, feel free to join us for a pancake (or two)! 
  • A correction to the letter, you can bring in extra toppings for YOURSELF
