Wednesday’s Note

The first part of our Math test for fractions and decimals happened today.  The second part is tomorrow (adding, subtracting decimals).  I’ve asked students to review lessons 6 and 7 from our unit.  There was going to be a third part on Friday (to the test) but I’ve decided to assess in a different way and tomorrow will finalize the test.

Tuesday’s Note

  1.  Social Studies Research booklets are being marked.  When returned (aiming for Wednesday), they can be taken home and improved (or finished in some cases..) in order to improve grading.
  2. I just added the King’s Wharf Theatre permission page to this blog under “Paperwork” up top.  I’m looking for one more parent/guardian volunteer from this class to come along (police checks must be filed with the school already).

Poetry Recitals and Poetry Books

Congratulations to Cody, Mya, Ella-Rae, Hannah, Abigail, and Logan for their poetry recitals today in the Library competition!  Special mention goes to Logan for winning top honours in grade four based on the judges notes!

The remainder of the class will continue to recite at least 2 minutes of their own poems in the class this week starting tomorrow until Friday.  As well, the poetry books that we’ve been developing in class are due Friday.

Math Homework

Math Sheet #1 Fraction Areas is due Tuesday

Library tomorrow

Wednesday is an open house at Minesing (for Education week).  We’ll be showing the book trailers that were completed as well as other work for display (during the last block of the day on Wed.)
