Good afternoon everyone!
Happy Thursday everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying the cool weather. I cannot wait for the snow!
We started our day with gym with Mr. Orr, which you can read about on his blog (link on the left).
The students had a few minutes to put their final touches on their matter summative boards.
After this, we had music with Mr. Oliver, which you can read about on his blog (link on the left).
In the afternoon, we had French with Mme. Rawan, which you can read about on her blog (link on the left).
Inquiry into Math – We took up our math review today. Everyone seemed to have a good understanding of the material for our unit test tomorrow. Students will be given the opportunity to stay in for their first recess tomorrow to continue studying for math. I will help any students who still might be having difficulty.
Inquiry into Matter – We spent the final portion of the afternoon discussing what makes a good presentation, practicing presentations, and putting finishing touches on our boards. Presentations to will occur tomorrow morning, which all students have been made fully aware.
For homework:
- Spelling Lesson 6 (due tomorrow)
- Study for math test (tomorrow)
