A couple of announcements this week:
- there will be a Remembrance Day service this Wednesday at 10:30 am
- Progress reports get sent out this Thursday. Mrs. Brooks will be emailing a link for parent-teacher interviews. If you would like an interview, we will have signups for one of the 10 minute timeslots that will run between 3:30 and 7:30 pm on Thursday, November 19.
In Math this week, we are working on mental math strategies.
In Language, we will be starting persuasive writing. They will eventually be given a task to write about a place they would like to take for a field trip or a family vacation. I also gave them a challenge last week to try and memorize parts of In Flanders Fields. On Wednesday morning, those that want to see how much they remember, can try before we go to the ceremony. Otherwise, they can also try reading a portion of it.
In Science, they have been working in groups using Book Creator. We had a lesson last week about collaboration, and they are in Book Creator working on their topic (additives in soil).
In Visual Arts, we will be looking at one-point perspective drawing.
