ELA: research on Greek gods. I asked students to take info and pictures with a grain of salt, as we are talking gods...enough said.

This week in Learning:
FLA: we have begun a novel study called "Les crayons qui trichent" We will be working on vocabulary (words for chapter 1 will follow this post) and comprehension. Students will be reading every night and writing a summary of every chapter.
ELA: We are beginning a short unit on Reader's Theater. Students will be in groups and will be asked to use their voices to put on a play.
MATH: we are continuing with decimals, naming them and rounding them up or down.
SCIENCE: looking at constellations and planets this week. If you want to you can download the Skyview APP that helps you see constellations even in daylight. It is free and cool! Students are asked to note where the constellations are at various times, remembering that we are rotating and revolving.
SOCIAL: test on chapter 2 tomorrow. We have begun looking at ancient Greece and their form of democracy.
RELIGION: looking at Mount Sinai and the covenant story. Students will each be performing and act of that story.
HEALTH: learning styles with a the goal of trying out something new. ie: if a student is more a visual learner, maybe try to learn tactilely, or auditorily. Studies show that the more senses use to learn, the better you will retain the information.
PLEASE NOTE: We are using more sheet protectors than anticipated as they are a great way to keep materials organized. I have been supplying some, but if you could make a run to Walmart or the loonie store to pick up another package, that would be great! Thanks for your help.
