Week of January 13th

Exciting news: Each student has the opportunity to select a book from the January book order valued 7 dollars or less and receive that item for free. Only 1 item can be selected, and the 7 dollars cannot be used towards a more expensive item. Students have a coupon code to input online (under a parent account) to select and order their book. To create a parent account, go to scholastic.ca/canadaclubs. The more students that can order under their parents' account, the better as that will reduce the amount of time I would have to spend inputting all the coupon codes. If there is truly a difficulty doing this, I can input the item myself. Students must not lose their coupons as I do not have replacements. If students cannot find something of interest that is 7 dollars or less in the January book orders, they are welcome to hang onto their coupon for a future book order. The due date for the January book order is Friday, January 24th at 9 AM.

• Students should be reading 15 to 20 minutes in English this week, Monday through Thursday.
• Students should write one sentence under the day's date in their agenda on days Monday through Thursday. This sentence should relate to their reading and can summarize their reading, give their opinion of it, or reflect on it by making a personal connection. 
• Students should study their English spelling words at home this week. There is a spelling test on next Day 1 (Wednesday, January 15th). The words should be written into students' agendas under "Mots de la semaine." Students received these words last week. Students may also have a print-out of the words. Students can study their words with a family member or on SpellingCity.com or using the SpellingCity app (for phones and tablets). Students have their usernames and passwords in their agendas. 
• Students are asked to complete 2 pages of math work this week out of their navy blue duo-tang. Please note this minimum requirement is per week, not per day.
