Phew! That was a busy week! Here is a snapshot!
Math - We have been working the subtraction this week - from 1-3 digit numbers. Students have been practicing taking away using base-10 materials and then showing how that looks with the subtraction "stacking" formula. We will continue this concept for the next couple of weeks.
Inquiry - Students have been working on their Ingenuity Challenge. The theme is "There has to be a better way." Mrs. Libbey's group has been working on solving the icy hill issue and Ms. Rutland's group has been tackling graffiti in the washroom. Stay tuned for further updates!
Social Studies - Students have begun exploring the idea of "Quality of Life" and did a group activity where they had to explore their wants versus their needs.
Language Arts - Most students have completed their persuasive paragraph around a given issue. Students were tasked with writing an introduction with an attention grabbing hook; 3 reasons with supporting details; and an "end with a bang" conclusion. Please read your child's paragraph on GoogleDocs.
Reminder: There is no school tomorrow or on December 22.
The Holiday Market is at Royal Oak School on Saturday, December 9th.
Have a nice long weekend!
