Tuesday, November 15th

Last night I went through your Lord of the Flies projects. I am very impressed with the amount of effort and time that went into them. They look fabulous!

Math - You took notes on multiplying multi-digits numbers. We reviewed the steps and discussed regrouping and the step of adding the zero to the second line. You continued with your math colouring package and I called over some math groups to work on practice questions together. Homework tonight is to finish the "soccer balls" page 2 sheet. I will check for completion tomorrow. 

English Div. 5 - We reviewed the GIST strategy. You did a rotation activity in small groups where you read and discussed a recent news article. In your groups you found the 5 W's, H, and 10 GIST words to summarize the text and you shared your findings with the class.

English Div. 4 - You were introduced to the GIST strategy. We read through a recent news article called "Have You Taken the Mannequin Challenge?" We discussed the 5 W's, H, and came up with 10 GIST words together as a class. We did our own version of the mannequin challenge (minus the song... I'll look into that tonight). 

Social Studies Div. 4 - You had computer lab time to work on your inquiry project. There are only a few class times left so you may want to consider completing some for homework (including the artifact piece). 

Reminders:

* Socials Inquiry Project due Friday
* Missing/late work - please complete and hand in!!
* P.A.C. Pizza lunch for sale tomorrow
* Bring in field trip forms and coupon books
