Dear Boys and Girls,
Today is “trying” Tuesday. The date is June 2nd, 2020.
I am going to try to get our classroom cleaned up some more.
It’s a little messy. We all left quickly, didn’t we?
What are you going to "try" to do today?
It looks like it going to be another sunny day.
Enjoy the sunshine!
Love, Mrs. Sobey

Your goal is to complete at least 5 lessons this week. Aim to complete 1 each day and by Friday you will have completed all your lessons. Remember if you begin a game, please finish it.
Problem of the Week
There were 11 ladybugs in the garden. Then 4 of them fly away. How many ladybugs are left? Do you add or subtract to find the answer? Include the number sentence along with your picture. (ex. 15-5=10)
I would encourage students to draw a picture to help them solve. I will post my work showing the solution next Monday morning. I would love to see the student’s work as well. That can be emailed to me at jodi.sobey@nbed.nb.ca.
*For Art on Friday, students will need 1or 2 paper plates and other items such as tissue paper, markers, crayons, yarn, bells, googly eyes, pompoms, and any other decorative craft items they can gather up.
In addition to the activities suggested above students are encourage to read independently, participate in some physical activity and complete the task from the “Social-Emotional Learning” calendar.
