Thank you to all who made the time to see me for interviews. It is always appreciated to be on the same page as parents and to know what everyone's expectations are.
Learning this week:
FLA: we are almost done the novel study. It will be due before holidays. Today students were told about a project to go with it, researching a monster/myth or making a WANTED poster for Big Foot. Once again, very few had read chapter 4 for discussion today. To date, students should have vocab and summaries for up to chpater 4, a letter and a title page.
ELA: students received their marks for Greek research. Today we went on a prefix hunt and for the remainder of the time before holidays, we will work on Reader's Theater. Acting using only the voice.
MATH: today we learned how to divide decimals. Practice is necessary to get better at it, and again, some students still need practice with multiplication tables.
SCIENCE: we will finish up the unit shortly. I expect the exam to be after the holidays, depending on how many disruptions we get in the next while.
SOCIAL: we look at the way Athens government was structured. Again, I expect the exam to be after the holidays.
RELIGION: We will finish our Advent magazine and have it ready to showcase for the open house next week.
ART: optical illusions will be due at the end of this week, if not done already. We will do a Christmas ornament this week. Sketchbooks; we are working on texture. Will be due after Christmas.
This week;
I hope to walk the neighbourhood this Tuesday and Wednesday.. So very few students handed in their premission slips, so as of tomorrow, no slip, no spreading joy.
Also due today was the sheet on height and weight for skiing. Not everyone handed theirs in.
Mission Mexico: bring a toonie for Thursday
Open House info: Escape room
For fun, I have planned several activities around our curriculum at several stations. When you have had enough, you can see me for lock puzzle. Solve it in order to be able to leave. Our performance with Mme Berko is at the end of the evening at around 7h25 - 7h30. Hope to see you there.
