Students have until Monday to complete the homework. **Permission forms for the field trip to snowshoe in Gatineau Park were sent home and are due back on  Friday, January 12th.  Math: This week we will be exploring addition & subtraction word problems that require multiple steps in order to find the solution. This includes working with 3-digit numbers for both adding and subtracting. Students are encouraged to continue using a variety of strategies to solve the math problems, but also practice using the standard algorithm to double check their work. Language:   We are continuing to write persuasive texts. This week we started with a shared reading of " I Wanna Iguana".
