Students started a fresh set of Centers this morning. We also wrote our Lesson 18 spelling test and put together wonderful TWAS to share.

After recess, students wrote their open book Science tests to wrap up our Human Body unit.

We started to work on a partner Problem Solver focusing on the Draw a Picture or Diagram strategy.

After lunch, we worked through Math Pods. At station 1, students worked on constructing a variety of rectangles with given perimeter. Students used the geoboards to help them. Any rectangles not completed are homework. Please encourage your child to use the virtual geoboard links provided on the right hand side of the screen. At station 2, students were introduced to area. We used geoboards to construct a variety of rectangles with varying areas. Station 3 was at the computer where students could choose from any of the sites from the blog.

Our day finished up with Phys Ed and read aloud, where we are starting a new novel from the I Am Canada series.

Have a great weekend everyone and see you Monday!
