Friday, January 10

Messages and Reminders:
Please return signed report card envelopes (keep the report card at home) and LA and math quizzes that went home before the break. Wednesday is pajama day and our next basic facts / computation quiz. There is a social studies unit test next Friday - see Mr. Shackelton's blog for more info.

Morning Recap:
This morning we began with read to self or read to someone. In language arts, we read The 3 Little Pigs and completed a plot map for the story. All this work on plot elements has been in preparation for us planning our own stories. During math, we started our next topic, which is ratios. We discussed what a ratio is and how it is similar to and different from a fraction. We did lots of practice questions, as a class and with our table groups. When our buddies came up to see us, we set new year's goals about the pillars of care. Everyone completed a little book with a goal for each of the four pillars. We also did some new year's word work if we finished early. After a quick classroom cleanup, we ended the morning at gym with all the grade sixes.

Have a wonderful weekend!
