We started off the week with a new set of Centers this morning. Students were also given their Lesson 16 spelling words. The spelling test will be on Friday, February 3.

After recess, we completed 4 stations in Writing. Students worked at one station to find different words for the color words. Another station allowed the students to choose a piece of writing from the beginning of the year and improve its presentation. A third station gave the students an opportunity to use Thesaurus.com to identify other words for some over used words. The fourth station continued from last week where students are identifying different items from a First Nations themed picture. The students worked today to find more interesting words to describe these items.

The students continued to work on their division skills during math. Students worked on their basic division facts at station 1. Please keep practicing your multiplication facts as these are so important for the division unit. At station 2, the students used Front End Rounding to estimate with division. Station 3 was computer based.

We finished up the day with Phys Ed and Read Aloud.
