Happy Friday everyone!!
We started our Friday with some teacher table activities. Each group continued to work on their short stories. Group 1 will continue working on The Rajah's Rice on Monday. Group 2 and 3's Rajah's Rice questions and chess board are due on Monday. The Ideas Peddler questions are due for Group 4 on Monday.

In computers students were challenged to complete a variety of tangram puzzles. They did a wonderful job at trying to create the various objects. The puzzles are available at http://pbskids.org/cyberchase/games/area/tangram.html.

Math Pods made our math class much more exciting today. Students were given an opportunity to complete a symmetrical game at the Smartboard (http://www.innovationslearning.co.uk/subjects/maths/activities/year3/symmetry/shape_game.asp). The game reviewed with the students the concept of lines of symmetry.
Students also worked on questions 7, 11, and 12 from pages 237-238 in their textbooks.
We also had a review table for Perpendicular Lines.

Have a great weekend grade 5 and good luck to those students participating in the Standards meet tonight!!
