We will also be doing our Halloween parade through Salem Manor on Friday afternoon. Send your child dressed in their Halloween costume so we can show it off. We will be having our potluck lunch as well with a wonderful Halloween dessert treat. I will be sending out the sign up sheet shortly to sign up for either Juice Boxes, Cheese and Crackers, and a fruit/veggie platter. Please still send a protein with your child for lunch to eat as the potluck items are considered sides for them to eat with whatever they bring.
Math
This week in math we are starting our Numbers to 100 unit. The outcomes we will be covering in this unit are as follows;
I Can:

- Describe order or relative position, using ordinal numbers (up to tenth).
- Represent and describe numbers to 100, concretely, pictorially and symbolically.

Science
This week we will be finishing up our unit on magnetism and writing our unit test.
Social Studies
In social we are looking at the 3 different communities we will be studying. So far we have introduced a prairie community (Saskatoon) and an Inuit community (Iqaluit). The final community we will introduce is an Acadian community (Meteghan). We have looked at the three areas of Canada that have the prairie provinces, the Inuit provinces/territories, as well as the Acadian provinces.
I hope everyone has a great week ahead and a great Halloween Weekend.
