This week in Learning:

FLA: students will be doing another round of literacy circles, although after today, that plan may come to an end. I had asked students to work in their groups so that I might work one on one with students to see where their reading skills lie. I can honestly say that not all groups were on task, showing me that they maybe cannot be left alone to work on their own independently. We will try again tomorrow. Opinion letters were due today.

ELA: we will continue with Shadows. Students will also be asked to find figures of speech within the chapters. More to come tomorrow.

MATH: we finish unit 5 tomorrow and the test is Friday. All questions should be asked before then to ensure complete comprehension.

SCIENCE: our experiments are moving towards flight now and how the air pressure affects objects in movement.

SOCIAL:  Students will hopefully receive their Iroquois test back tomorrow. We have Tpet coming in for the afternoon Tuesday. After that we will look at the municipal government.

ART: we began a new project on proportions. All students should have an image by next class. 

RELIGION: students are collecting gently used blankets, towels and stuffies. We wrote our lenten promises today and we will begin preparing for Lent.

HEALTH: due tomorrow...emotions booklet and how our bodies react when we feel different emotions.

This week:
Students are selling hot chocolat at the 1st recess for 50ȼ a cup and the money goes towards Farewell.  Students on that committee should bring their milk in asap.

Thursday is Pink shirt and Positive Post-it note day
Phys Ed will be in the Learning commons or, weather dependant, outside. Let's pray for the latter.
Mardi Gras is this Friday...tickets should be purchased by tomorrow to be safe.
