FLA: we are doing something called "Tour ā tour" which helps with reading comprehension. Each student is assigned a reading in a book and is the "mini-prof" for that lesson. They need to be able to understand their reading to teach it to their students and answer any questions. It helps them work on vocabulary and comprehension. Meanwhile,  I will be beginning GB+ evaluations for the students who are not yet at level 30, which is end of grade 6.
Homophone quiz on Thursday April 19th.

MATH: we will be finishing fractions, ratios and percentages. There is a unit test this Thursday. So far, I am pleased with everyone's undestanding of the unit.

SOCIAL: we are done with municipal government and there is a unit test next week APRIL 24th. We ow move onto provincial government. You can help your child be talking about what they do and what's happening in the news.
