If our poetry anthology was not handed in today, it is now late and needs to be submitted on Tuesday. Many students also still need to hand in the math homework that was due today. There is no school on Monday because it is Remembrance Day. We begin swimming lessons on Tuesday. Make sure students have a bathing suit, towel, and plastic bag each day that we are swimming. If you have not returned the forms, students will not be going swimming and will join a grade five class at school while we are gone. Our next basic facts / computation quiz is on Wednesday. November's school spirit day is on the 20th and is "reverse day" - teachers can dress as students and students can dress as teachers. Theatre field trip forms and payment are due on Friday, November 22.
Morning recap:
This morning after writing our social studies unit test, we completed our week in review and then did read to self or read to someone. During math, we did some multiplication word problems using a graphic organizer to clearly show our work. Here is an example:
In health, we reviewed the zones of regulation. There are four zones: blue, green, yellow, and red. They correspond to different emotional states. If we're sad or tired, we're in the blue zone. Being in the green zone means we're feeling okay and are ready to learn. If we're worried, frustrated, or hyper, we're in the yellow zone. Being in the red zone means we're out of control, which usually means being angry or terrified. This year we will practice lots of strategies to help us move back to the green zone. Today we began making fortune tellers that will help us review the zones. We listed the emotions associated with each zone and wrote what it looks like to be in the green zone.
After a quick classroom cleanup, we headed down to the Remembrance Day assembly. We spent the last 15 minutes of the morning either doing finish up in Mr. Mueller's room or at gym.
Have a wonderful long weekend!
