This Week:
- in language arts this week we continued looking at non-fiction text features and what they are. We also worked on building our sentences so that we have complete sentences with punctuation that make sense.
- in math we finished up our graphing unit. We will next be starting patterns and equations.
- in science we learned about the four spheres that make up our earth's systems. We also started an experiment with pumpkins. It should be interesting (an disgusting) to see what happens to them. We also started learning about computer science and how computers work. We also learned about Damien Hirst and his use of dots in his art work. We combined this with our learning of binary to create some art work that has a code using dots, binary code and our own colour code.
- in social studies we continued mapping and citizenship
Notices:
- we are all hoping the strike does not affect us too much and there will be an agreement soon!
- At first, the information that came out stated that students and teachers would not be able to access Google classroom and accounts, but today they released further information that stated students WILL be able to access their Google classroom account. I however will NOT be able to, so I will not be able to access any emails, respond to comments opr work turned in, or help if students have any login issues.
- students login to Google using their username@educbe.ca and their password (which is usually their first name with a capital and year of birth- no spaces).
- I have uploaded a few assignments and resources onto our Google Classroom. These are NOT manditory or required, but just if students wish to have something to do. I also sent home their adding and subtracting booklets to work and practice with.
- inline skating will resume when we return!
