I hope to see you all at tonight's parent information meeting in our classroom at 6 p.m.
Today I was out of the classroom for three I.E.P. meetings. We were lucky to have Ms. L. come in to teach the class while I was away. The students did a self-reflection activity and then participated in the third key words assembly. After recess and we did math: the 7s who finished the practice test on p. 123 and the problem activity on pp. 124-25 started to work on the cumulative (Unit 1-3) review on pp. 126-27. I would like students to try to complete up to #8 for homework. We will not be having a cumulative test at this point as we get ready to pass by Unit 4 (Circles and Area) in order to continue with fractions in Unit 5.
After lunch the class read for 15 minutes and then, under Ms. L.'s supervision, took time to reorganize (de-clutter) the room. THANK YOU to everyone who had a part in tidying the common spaces: the room looked amazing when i came back from my last meeting (and it smelled nice, too). Next, students completed an activity for the key words campaign that Mr. Paish is spearheading. We ended the day with the sharing of learning from some more of the Egypt inquiry projects. The day was a bit disjointed, but I appreciated the cooperation that was shown. I also enjoyed the cakes made by Gage and Landseer. Hey, wait a minute; maybe the next inquiry should be on the history of baked goods....mmmmmmm.
Remember that tomorrow is art and we need you to remember to bring your recording devices and the clips that you filmed two weeks ago.
