Tuesday, 11 December

Today we began with an intermediate grades meeting with Mr. Brown in order to organize some celebration activities as we prepare for Mr. Richey's retirement that begins next Wednesday after the Christmas concert.  After that we had a talking circle to discuss the events that occurred yesterday afternoon.  Next we went to the library for a book talk with Ms. Taggart.

After recess we read for 15 minutes and then did math.  The 7s reviewed their integers unit test.  Retests  can be done at lunch tomorrow.

We started the afternoon with 15 minutes of reading and then did some more work with ropes and knots.  We also discussed some of the components involved in outdoor expeditions.  I talked about risk management and how we have a "challenge by choice" approach to these sorts of activities.  We ended the day with a science lesson.

If an organism fits omnivorous, just
put it in two boxes (ex. bear)

Here are the screen shots of the science text and the homework questions.  Please put the answers to the three questions (found at the TOP of page 39) on the back of your food web classification sheet.
