I hope everyone is keeping warm in this extremely cold weather! We started our day today with our Science Fair winners assembly. Congratulations to all the winners (one of our winners is not photographed).
We started our day with reading buddies. The grade fives had a lot of fun helping the grade ones with their summative presentations.
Inquiry into Math – We took up our math review from yesterday. To my surprise, the students actually ASKED for math homework today. We have our final unit test for Geometry tomorrow.
After this, we went to the library to read before recess.
French – In the afternoon, we had French with Mme. Rawan, which you can read about on her blog (https://mmerawansja.blogspot.com).
