First a quick heads up that tomorrow is Truth and Reconciliation Day (Orange Shirt Day). The children are welcome to recognize the day by wearing an orange shirt. Also, don't forget that the Grade 6's are running Freezie Days. Please donate through SchoolCashOnline to help fund their grade 6 graduation activities.
This year, our Terry Fox run will be on Thursday, October 9th. If you would like to donate, please go through the following link:
This week in Language we will be looking at the last senses for our descriptive writing. The class will soon be working on a "Descriptive Setting Mystery" whereby they will be giving 6 clues (surrounding the 5 senses) towards a hidden setting picture of their choice. The focus will be on the descriptive language that they will use, in addition to using proper sentence form.
In Math, we will be continuing with our addition and subtraction to 100, then moving onto some lessons on 2D shapes late in the week (possibly next week). I have added a class page at thatquiz.org where there will be regular practice assignments posted. Here is our class link:
In Science, we have been looking at our sand is actually just rocks broken down. This week, we will be doing another class experiment to display how this occurs.
In Art, we will be using our colouring and drawing skills that we have been practising by making a picture of a tree. We will be looking at lines, curves and using the shading techniques that were taught last week.
