Morning recap:
This morning we either finished our Terry Fox doodle art shoe or did read to self or read to someone before we were interrupted by a fire drill. Most of us did a great job during the drill. In math, we played noggle. It's just like boggle but with numbers. We had to write all the multiplication and division sentences we could find (they don't have to be touching in noggle the way they do in boggle). One example is 3 x 5 = 15. How many can you find?

We also went over the steps to solving a word problem and did some multiplication and division word problems. If we finished all the problems, we played math games. We did a quick week in review and classroom clean up before going down to see our buddies. We walked around the school looking for leaves and then we came in and created leaf art. We ended the morning at gym with all the grade sixes.






Have a wonderful weekend!
