Great Trip!

We have had a busy start to the week in room 18!

Our week began with an awesome trip to Island Lake! The pond study and cooperative games were great!  The class had such a positive experience!

See pictures below!

Here are some updates :

Schedules went out to the kids yesterday, and they are FAIRLY accurate – with just some slight changes that need to be made.

In language we are working on a couple things. One activity is our bio-domes. Rough copies have been written and edited and gone over by me. Good copies have been started on the cloud and are due next Monday. The actual model of the bio-dome is due Tuesday morning. In the next little while, we will also be working on our summarizing skills.  The students will be practicing how to take a large piece of written material and bring it down to a suitable size. Not an easy feat! We will spend a good chunk of time on this and then move on to some "longer" pieces of writing.

In math we are well into our triangle (geometry) unit and have begun learning about the interior angle theory.  The kids will have a quiz on Friday, and a larger test by the end of next week.

In history our focus will be on Confederation and we will be taking a closer look at the Fathers of Confederation.

IEP’s

I will be meeting with the parents of those kid who have IEP's. If you have not received a notice regarding this, please contact me at school or drop a note in your child's agenda.

Reminders:

Take Care,
Miss Waddell
